Title: Re: How to make clear reflectors Post by: pbplayer257 on October 12, 2010, 12:33:11 AM Since i cannot find any type of white reflector anywhere i have decided to try to make my own. I have read this article again and again but i still am uncertain on one part. Maybe someone has done this and can help me out.
5 - Once dry take the sides walls off and peal away the bottom card board. You should now have a hole at the bottom with reflector imbedded. Also take the reflector out of the mold and remove all the modeling clay, you might have to wash the part again to clean all the clay off it. 6 - you are now ready to make the other side of the mold. Insert the reflector back in the mold and place upside down (reflector showing). reuse the cardboard side walls and tape them against the sides of the mold, this will keep the othe side of the mold from overflowing. 7 - Mix another 1/4 of the silicone mold liquids in a new cup and pour over the reflector. You should have enoug silicone to fill the hole and have some come out of the sides, the side walls will contain the rest of it. So after the first mold is complete i turn it upside down with the clay on the inside????

Title: Re: How to make clear reflectors Post by: CrackerTeg on October 12, 2010, 03:13:03 PM I can almost guarantee that no one here has done it. Probably for the amount of work involved and time to make it happen. Besides, most of us have these cars as a daily so it really puts a damper on the project.
