Title: Ideal 55 / Coin Box
Post by: Slapshot42 on November 19, 2015, 07:09:20 pm
After many small little problems I finally got this coin box finished!

I used a powder coated wrinkle finish on the outside, and a flat finish in the inside!

Thanks to James Bagwell for straightening the box out!

As much time as I have into this one it would really have to be worth it!  It was very time consuming getting it right!!

Bodywork was done.  I used a local powder coating company and used a glossy wrinkle finish on the outside and a flat black in the inside including the coin drawer.

Just to be sure I understand.... the finish on the the outside of the coin box was actually power-coated with a wrinkle finish? The inside was power-coated (flat black) as well? Thanks!

Yes that is correct
