Had a great first outing as Batman. Still need proper gauntlets / fins and a solution to sweat dripping from the front of the cowl. I think my bat could be raised a little higher as well.

Updated as of last night, finally got the cape mounted, as well as the chest piece in a better place. Didn't get the neck fully tucked in all the way, and no eye black because I had work today but, I'm loving it so far.

Refinishing my 89 belt:


Metal Henry Wayne buckle has been cleaned and polished with Brasso.


All new belt strap. Like the previous one, this is from the same original 1988 Chevy side molding material, but now I learned a little more about how to paint and lacquer, and polished it to a shine.


The inside of the strap has a very strong adhesive that is extremely difficult to remove. I tried all manner of solvents and Goo Gone, scraping, cutting, etc. In the end, the only way physically remove the adhesive would be a Dremel. So instead, I decided to leave it and cover the inside of the belt with a thin lacquer coat, which in 15 minutes completely dried and neutralized the adhesive. Then a quick spray of flat black, and another quick lacquer spray and it's perfect.


I know the color is not accurate, but I like it.
