I have been playing around with my inkjets making logos and oher stuff so I thought that I might do my mailbox. I printed out some Authorized Service Medalions and went to the model shop and got me some fireproof dope and dope the logos in place. Three coats later I installed my mailbox. The logos lasted for about two weeks....untill a big rainstorm. Water somehow got behind the dope and soaked up the velum that I printe dthe logos on. Back to the drawing board except this time I was doing my neighbors mailbox and shew wanted cats.
This time I doped the cats on two coats and top sealed the cats with four coats of clear enamel. Well her maibox has made it through two rainstorms and still is sealed so I guess I have figured out how to do the appliques. Too late for my mail box as I order two of Authorized Service Decals while I was playing with the neighbors mail box. Looks like if I hadnt been in such a hurry I could have save myself a few bucks after all.
So now the mailbox looks great and I have my business logos done and my elevator is done in the shop but my allergies are killing me so I am still two weeks behind getting the loft done.
Living in town is such a pain.......they expect you to stop making noise at 10:00 PM.....heck by then I am just getting started inside........
