Painting over Triple Thick?
« on: August 28, 2012, 05:12:39 AM »
I did pony eyes.. Sealed them with Triple Thick.. And now the more I look at them, the more I want to make a couple minor changes.. If I paint over the triple thick and seal it again, would it look ok?

I had to figure this one out the hard way, and about 2 days ago no less!

I had to paint over triple thick and I haven't had any problems so far.  The areas were small, I imagine larger areas would have to deal a little bit with a texture issue depending on how thick the triple thick was applied.

(I was sealing a cute little symbol with triple thick and it.....destroyed it!!!  The symbol had been cured for a few days, Createx artist paints no less.  I applied the triple thick and the painting just smeared everywhere!  I have never had that happen.  I had to let everything cure again and then repainted the symbol over the triple thick mess.  Oddly, same paints, same pony, the eyes took the triple thick just fine. Go figure.)

Hmm That sounds odd indeed! I just want to correct the highlights on the eyes, so hopefully that will work just fine. Thank you!

I have done this many times :)
 CSA - are your createx paints the airbrush paints? Also did you water you Triple thick down at all? I accidentally watered some on mine down and went over a design with airbrush paint and is smeared too - I came to the conclusion it was the added water - cause i tried without watering it down and it worked like a charm
