Hi
following on from my dash
i've been thinking about making it out of ally

what is the finish like with subbing onto ally?
i have never tried it or seen the finish

thanks

xpres aluminium in white is nice and glossy. i love it. but only white, if silver i preffer brushed effect.

does it scratch ?

i dont scratch mine but it looks very solid. I have some pictures printed and from time to time I wipe it with some pledge to get rid of the dust. looks like new. no damge or nothing.

okies kool
is this the same stuff do you know?
as xpress the sizes are too small for what i want
500mm x 400mm roughly

Could you not make it out of ally composite panel and then get it engraved?

haven't got the money :~
we've run out a few weeks ago so have to do things as cheap as poss now

Have a word with BMS as they can cut you metal to suit the size, several finishes IIRC and seems to print nicely.

Subli aluminium will scratch if used as a dash. I do like the brushed silver finish but all depends what you need to match it to.

I doubt you will get that size (even from BMS) as the standard sheets are 600 x 300 or thereabouts.

Would sub metal be uv stable - I was thinking if on a boat it would be open to the elements and fade quite quickly.
