70 Camaro - Boise, Idaho

Needed to get some clear on the carbon interior panels so I could put them away safely, at least for a while. 4 coats of matte clear.


Need to have the AC knobs and the switches anodized so quicky fit up to pick the sheen.

Forgot to mention, the lettering for the switches and AC control notations were etched with a CO2 laser and then I swept in multiple coats of paint before final wet sanding and then the matte clear. The CO2 laser gave super crisp lines in the carbon fiber/epoxy. Tried a regular laser on a test piece but it burned the epoxy.

That's really interesting. Using lasers to make hot rod parts. Who would've thought this 10 years ago?

So true. Even the laser guy was not sure it was going to work. Nothing ventured..... Hope all is well.
