How to Wrinkle a Wrinkle Finish
When I build , I seldom strive for com pactness,
since I like lots of roo m for modifications,
pruning, and possible additio nal circuitry.
I also like the neat appearance of rack
mo unt ing, and I'm fortunate in having a fr ee
source of l /S" aluminum from which to fashion
panels. Finally, I have predilection for
black wrinkle finish. Don't ask me why- I
just dig it.
In the past I've tried about every make of
black wrinkle enamel in spray can I could
find , and the results were never encouraging.
Many of you have probably had similar experiences.
It doesn't wrinkle. It doesn't dry
for three days, and is soft enough to scratch
with your fingernail for two or three weeks.
At best, it lo o ks like a sloppy job using standard
spray ena mel.
Finally, I hit o n a solution. Follow the
directions on the can: two heavy coats three
minutes apart. Let it stand for about ten
minutes after the second coat , and while it's
standing, fire u p the XYL's oven to 250 degrees.
Po p in the panel and ba ke it for a good
two hours. It thoroughly sti nks u p the house,
but the result is beaut iful even wrinkling
that's as hard as any professional paint job.
