If you dip them on the inside, you must be applying the applicator to the Shiny side?? The applicator must take the edge off the pattern, no?
Interesting... |

Ok... Will post on here.
If you apply the activator to the sticky/non glossy side and therefore stick it to the inside of the shell, that means you are having the best finish on the inside of the shell rather than showing through the shell on the outside. Know what I mean? I found the dip to be very durable on the outside of the shell.... But inside I'm sure is better. Would be very interested to hear your thoughts further |

As I thought buddy, the sticky side shows. Works well with the likes of Carbon fibre but the more bright and electric colours I think you'd lose the brilliance... But you've done a superb job there that's for sure. I will persevere with the outside for now until I improve and maybe venture to the inside lol
I've seen pitdawgs stuff, amazing isn't it!! |
