So I'm practicing resin casting with a Star Trek TNG commbadge. I'm in the experiment phase right now and trying a lot of different things/combinations. But what I'm stuck with is when I spray metallic gold over an aluminum/silver coat. It just seems to roll off the way water rolls off hydrophobic coatings. Any tips? Do I have to wait a lot longer for the silver coat to dry? Spray the silver coat with black primer? Sand it?
The silver paints are sticking just fine to the resin. Not sure - maybe the gold will stick to the resin too. So would it be a problem with the gold over the silver?
