Well, becouse I can't read korean, i thougth that some one here would know how tho do this. I am wondering how did the guy in this artice make the clear plexi not so clear? I want just that. The smoked plexi is to dark (well the one I can get), and this is perfect. Thanks
from the looks of the darkness of the plexi without the lighting, I would have to guess a light auto tint is the way he achieved that. Dont quote though
Auto tint would be my guess as well. Which just gave me an idea for something new on this tired old case....
auto tint.. thats the film that you put on car windows, right? I thought he sprayed somthing on it, but that would be wery uneven..
well, i dont think its window tint, i think he used "smoked plexi" you can get it in various degrees of darkness. usually you can get it in grey or bronze, looks like he used the grey kind.
tint I agree its not tinting film its colored plexi. Much more expensive, but as you can see the finished result is very cool!
no, it's not tinted plexi, because some of the pictures from his progress show it to be quite clear (and colorless!)...it looks like he used those cans of stuff to tint it
to me it looks like the inside frame is made of clear plexi and the outside shell is grey smoked plexi. if only we had a korean translator 8/
drop him/her a mail---but i am pretty sure it is tinted perspex which was bought like that--otherwise it would have shown piccies of him colouring the plastic You can buy it in the uk too-- displaydevelopments.co.uk
Mmmm Either the guy used clear plexi as a rough guide then tinted to do the final peice or . . . . . . .is that some kind of spray (tint maybe) in the 3rd picture down with all the tools he used?! :dude:
Looking at the joints, I would say he used tinted plexi but it is possible he used tint film similar to the stuff used here... http://www.bit-tech.net/article/63/
that brings up a question I have had and haven't had a chance to expierement yet... what if you paint or tint the inside panel of plexi and need to glue it to another piece (in my case at a 90 degree angle). To me, technically, you are actually bonding to the tint or the paint not the plexi and run the risk of it not being secure. Another fear I have is the glue eating up the paint and/or tint...
