Help with water-based blockout paints
I understand there was a lively discussion here several months ago on w/b
blockout paints. I'm sorry I missed it since my company manufactures these
products and I might have been able to help out with any technical problems
that were brought up. I have recently stumbled across a way to manufacture
transparent (or translucent) colors for the front side of neon tubing. I
understand that colored glass is very expensive and difficult to work with so
that an alternative method for producing classic colors at, say, 2-4 cents
per foot premium (1 gal paint will coat about 2000 linear feet of 10mm
tubing) over clear glass might be useful to the industry. Has anyone had
experience with translucent colors in the past? What were the problems?
What are the barriers to getting someone to try it?
