Fountain Pen

[Marc Phillips]

Here's another decal pen... hard to believe this is the same pen.... one side is so completely different from the other!

I am still getting that weird white uhh... whatever on some decals, but mostly not. I am just gonna keep at it until I figure it out I guess....

Thanks for looking.

I see what your talking about in the first pic but hey it still looks really good other than that white spot

Marc,

The white you're experiencing is called silvering. What you see is actually the decal carrier film. To avoid silvering apply the decal over a smooth glossy surface, smooth out all trapped air and, when dry, apply your favorite glossy finish to seal in the decal.

Regards,

Larry

What I can't figure out is what exactly happened... just in that one spot. Everywhere else the decal is invisible. The surface was smooth as glass... CA MM'd up to 3200... very smooth. So, I didn't squeegee the water out?... or squeegeed out too much or??

Shouldn't the Weight Watchers pen be thinner?
