lolz, there is two there


bones, if you would like these plastics $30 and u can have them ($30 for plastics and it will cover postage<----- i paid $15 for em and postage $15) i want white i think

i wont be buying for a while (about 3 weeks or so) so if you still have them then i might consider it. another thing i have been looking into was painting the plastics (which is why i am after 2 - 4 sets) as i have found some chrome paint with 98% reflectivness. looks the goods and i will have a full chrome setup for under $50.

my old man is a painter of 30 years now so he knows his gear and the paint were getting is some good gear, its automative paint and it can be pretty expensive (1 gallon is $1,200 american) but im getting it alot cheaper than that (1 gallon i could get for about $150) so when i have got the stuff organised i might give ya a PM bro. see what happens.

maybe if you get some graphix on there she will come on a million bucks, who knows.

Cheers, Tony.

Fillers - Generally an inert substance added to the plastic to make it cheaper. The addition of filler generally reduces the properties of the final article.The amount is dependant on the properties on the end product and cost required.

Binders - Generally a resin to hold a substance together, ie the plastic in paint (the resin) is added to the other ingredients to hold them together (ie pigments colouring etc) (this is amongst other reasons.

Plasticisers - Added to either help in forming a continuous film, such as in paint (normally called a coalescent) or to help the plastic become more flexible.

There are many measurements required. It will largely depend on the application. Some are flexibility, hardness, colour, impact resistance, UV resistance, abrasive resistance, clarity, strength, elasticity, strength, etc

Another area were measurements are required are in the manufacturing area. Some of these are viscosity, temperature, gloss, dry time, water content etc.
Other additives briefly
Pigment for colour
Solvent for application purposes
Waxes to allow processing
Etc
