overlays are hard work :(

im having to do some overlays for a friend in exchange for some die cut stickers for my other parts.i forgot what a total pain in the arse they are to do :frowning:

will hopefully look like this when ive done,these were my first attempt a few years ago so hopefully i can improve n them this time…

When I get the time :rolleyes:, I want to test the idea of using skin packaging for holding overlays in place of vacumm bagging them.

Skin packaging?

Please Please do explain, I’m curious!!

It is an idea I have been playing with in my mind (along with too much other stuff) and wanting to try out (but got other school problems right now…) to do a over lay and then vacuum skin package with my thickest Surlyn fim to hold it into place while curing, but…we will see!:rolleyes:

I’ve seen some simple pieces done like that. They used some sort of high-strech bagging, and that was is. never saw how it turned out or any info besides that.
