:: View topic - Question about handpainted graphics

Was thinking of doing some screen or hand printed graphics on my first set of skis. What ink have you used and how did you prep the graphics layer once the image is dry?

Nazdar 2 part epoxy inks. screen or paint, let sit for a 4 day minimum before layup (as in the instructions)

. if not covering entire topsheeet/base with art or backfill, then flame prior to painting.

water based acrylic paint (the one you buy at hardware stores) works really well. i've painted whole bases with that stuff and it doesn't delam at all. good availability, cheap and easy to use. if you use a glossy finish then you should sand it prior to layup.
