Danne Report post Posted July 19, 2021 I recently saw someone using isopropanol to even out the last layer of edge paint. (It was a story clip on Instagram, but can't find it now) he used a small white "sponge looking thing" and he held it with some tweezers. It almost looked like magic eraser. Anyone know what I talk about? I would guess this is also used by some people to dye or paint edges. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will have to look around here in the city, so I don't have to order something like that online. They are cheap, but shipping will cost a lot for that low amount.

Rahere Report post Posted July 19, 2021 The original idea goes back to the seventies for sure, likely older, someone took a knife to a bath sponge, stuck a chunk in some florists wire and span it closed in a hand drill. Now you can get craft EVA and upholstery foam, you can likely carve to shape. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
