Black tiger deck and its white edges

Postby Tadei » Sep 16th, '06, 16:44



Hey.

A bit of a problem here, though my fault entirely. Ok, I got a second-hand tigers. They were in a very good shape, they could fan very smoothly and fine. However, the edges were completely white.

So I decided to "paint them black" with a sharpie as I have read on some forums, I think ellusionist. People there had written that one should leave tiger so dry separately after the colour was applied. I did that - I left them overnight. But the result is that the tigers have lost their fanning power and also Triumph for example is hard to perform.

The thing is that when I was colouring them I sort of went a bit of the edge, because they were also white there ... I coloured the edge and a bit of a card at the edge also.

Irreversible? Or any similar experiences and, hopefully, a solution?

Thanks :)

gotta say never had that problem. i use a permanent marker and you have to be very careful. patience is the key here. i really don't like the white edges on tiger decks, looks awlful. :x

all those that believe in telekinesis raise my right hand!!!
