that's what she said

Is that even safe? regardless what it says.

From what I read in the car forums it works great even under the engine bay. But knows if there is any long term effect. I do however suspect you put it on the bat ones and never agin as you never really have a chance to wear it off enough on the figure

I assume you keep any of this stuff away from your suit, Geil? Thats why I'm not using anything on these rubber suits. As you said. The long term effects. It may look good 3 - 4 months from now with it but whats to say bad things happen 7 months to a year from now.

 

[Geil]

Yeah I would not put anything even on my car unless needed and the car is always outside under the sun so I have no choice. But for this guy I really hope I can prevent deterioration without adding risk through unknown chemical interaction. I was perfectly happy with armourall for years and so do many car owners but it's juts years of it will be harmful but most don't keep their car long enough to know. My integra armouralled was 8yrs old when I got rid of her. Now my current car is also 8yrs but in much better shape as I know a lot more of what to do or not to and thanks to the Internet

I went from room to room for different lighting. Natural light, kitchen light, garage light, living room light etc. As suggested the rubber does appear differently.

Maybe mine is fine after all.

 

[vodoun]

DiFabio, is it darker than the DX? if it is I wouldn't worry.

Mine was only ever so slightly shiny under dark conditions.

looked like all moisture was sucked out of it, and it was left in a desert for 6 months.

with no magical vending machines around.

hey does anybody know if superglue would speed up the process of deterioration?

 

[N2k-swb]

I dont know if the orginal costume is the same rubebr as the V1 DK but i used super glue on that one to hold the sides of his torso armor to his leg and the rubber became hard before crumbling away where i had glued, if its the same matierial on the OC i dont recommend it to be honest.

 

[Maglor]

Yeah, I wouldn't mess with super glue, you need some king of flexible glue.

 

[Raymond F.]

try household goop. it's elasticy and holds well and can be peeled off if need be.

 

[lforigno]

I am looking desperately for a MINT stand from this figure. Anyone out there willing to sell PM me.

thanks bud, i somehow removed the boot from its sole and need to think of a solution, and i thought of super glue... dodged a bullet there. haha

 

[Geil]

Gluegun should do the trick for that situation

 

[lforigno]
