Brilliant idea, crown rollers are nice but they will give a shape to your panel. Even if it's very subtle. A slip roller is better as long as the...

Yes...... Anyway, to help those who need a visual reminder of why lace would be "ok" [ATTACH][ATTACH] So....... It would be I think nice to use...
Yeah! The whole point if this post to begin with was to throw this obscure fact out there that aluminum can imprint with fabric. I know that there...
That is exactly how I discovered this! The little stickers! Yes any "O" condition will take a good print. Avoid 7075 but yes t3 and 5052 or 6061...
No because I don't think this is ever done that I know of... I'm doing it so I can customize my dash. Hood Birds c.c.

Hahahaha! My pleasure! I learnt that from my old lady! Hood Birds c.c.
Lol! I'll keep posting pics of my experiments. I'd like to really develop this trick. You guys try it to eh? Hood Birds c.c.

I have to get some good lace, it has to be starched up good and then you can experiment with different approaches. The one time I did it was at...

Yes, it's ghastly.[ATTACH] He seems relatively pleased though.... Hood Birds c.c.

Hey! I have a 54 Pontiac. Let's see your car Hood Birds c.c.
Winter forced me to park my 54 so I spent all Saturday replacing a plastic and aluminum radiator in a 1993 topaz. I really loathe that car. So...
