bustedlifter Report post Posted December 30, 2008 I've been busy working on my shed/workshop so this is the first thing I made in a while. It's a guitar strap I made for a friend of mine to give to his son for Christmas. I used BIC permanent markers for the color and black eco flow antique.[att chment=19003:th_IMG_1060.jpg] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks, I did my usual light coat of oil ( Vavoline 20w50) after the color, antiqued it and put some Aussie conditioner on it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully, I'll turn out stuff quicker once I finish my shop. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
badger Report post Posted December 30, 2008 Nice job! I like the bright colours. Do you have any problems with the permanent marker colours transferring to clothing? Karl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bustedlifter Report post Posted December 30, 2008 Nice job!I like the bright colours. Do you have any problems with the permanent marker colours transferring to clothing? Karl Hard to tell. I've used some on seats and it held up pretty well , I guess some does rub off from sitting on it. It does seem to be pretty permanent, though. It would also depend on the type of item it's used on.
