Maintenance

Postby mike55555 » Mar 29th, '10, 23:13



Hi, first post on here so sorry if in the wrong place. I am looking at starting a kid’s magic show and looking at maintaining a few of my props, especially Stratosphere. I am no good at DIY, so was wondering if anybody had any ideas how to do this as to what paint to use and how to make the metal a bit shinier?

Thanks
Mike

as crazy as this may sound ,,, sudacrem cream is excellent for keeping metal looking shiny

Thanks for that. Will give it a go. Anybody know what the best paint to use to re-paint it is?

Any paint that covers metal, the trick is to prepare the surface properly so follow the directions on the paint can. I'd find some sort of spray paint.
