Carbon Fiber

Post by MOmo »

So I have the Drawer liner to get the right pattern, but I want to add a twist.

Yellow weave/Carbon Kevlar!

Looking for something like this:

So, Im trying to locate something that will give me a fine line, instead of "squares". I was thinking the fiance' nylons, but its too small and likely would clog.

Here is the effect i want.

(Its going to be painted on the hood of a touring sedan.)

Hummm too hard for my taste.
I stick to
Tamiya Smoke 2-3 coats
Ductape Brand Carpet Tape
back it with silver paint or silver vinyl
^^ it even gives you this reflective shine in the sun.
