Been experimenting with using Fotofix as Lack3, and got great results. This is a 4:1 clear + blue fotoplast shell, with Fotofix on top.
Its much thinner than lack, and has some other advantages. It spreads quite well, so dont expect to be able to build up a shell, like you can with lack.
Well, heres what you need to know. Start by sanding your shell with a dremel sanding wheel. Clean it when you think you are done with water or hydrogen peroxide. Make sure absolutely every part of the outside of the shell has been sanded. Yes, at this moment, it will look horrid. Leave them in hydrogen peroxide for 20-30mins, and them let them dry. after this, you are ready to dress them in Fotofix. I break a Q-tip in half, shove it into the canal, and then hold it with a vice grip. coat THE ENTIRE SHELL with the fotofix, and then wait 10 minutes. Turn off the lights/make it dark, if you can. If there aren’t any bubbles, you can cure it. If there are, just take the brush, and apple a little more. Wait those 10 minutes, and repeat until satisfied.
What is so great about it, is that it doesnt seem to yellow! Anybody with Lack3 knows how frustrating the yellowing is. I can leave it in my UV “oven” as long as I want, no issue. Cures rock hard, and doesn’t peel, like lack does, when not cured enough. Very smooth surface. Unless you are a lack magician, I reccomend this stuff. Its amazing.
