Transparent topsheet material

Post by agiocochook »

I'd like to put graphics on top of veneer and am looking for clear (transparent not natural) topsheet material. Struck out at Crown and a place called K-Mac, and snowboardmaterials.com is out for the season....any other sources? Only looking for a couple pairs worth at the moment, but would buy a little more if necessary.

Thnx,
Scott

Get an Earlex and some System Three WR-LPU

Give it 6 or 7 coats with your graphics on after the 2nd. Do some light sanding between coats and you'll be good to go. If you want a fairly detailed description of what I just said, go to Happy Monkey Snowboards and cruise his blog.
