Need help with water.
Posted: Monday, November 08, 2004 - 12:35 PM UTC
Im wanting to do a vignette with to navy seals chest deep in murky water. Im using Enviro-tex two part resin. I was wanting to show water movement around there chest. I done a small experiment but have a problem now. When the resin was dry I took gel super glue and made the wake around the figure but the super glue made the resin look hazy. What could I do to get rid of the haze.

I don't think you can do anything to get rid of the haze. The only thing I can think of to try is to polish the super glue part. Get some wet 6000 (? the highest # sand paper you can find in the paint section of Lowes). Then get some aluminum or silver polish and buff it. If the haze isn't right on the surface this won't do much good.
Maybe a nice coating of future over the top of it all?
Those are my first thougths - wait for more too.

Thanks slodder, while waiting for a reply on the matter I sprayed clear spray enamel on the resin with two coats it seams to have cleared up a little. I was thinking about future but I have not found any in my area does wall mart lowes or home depot carry it . What about some other kind of floor polish.
