re: Black Widow PFG - the Discussion - Black Widow


I've already got the Henry ordered and hopefully shipped. And I don't mind the extra at all. My Pa is waiting in the wings to see how this newfangled projector setup of mine works and if he likes it. He's gonna go the projector route as well. So I'll have enough to make him a screen as well. And knowing him like I do (not to mention his budget). He's gonna one up me big time on PJ's. Which is fine. Since he's gonna lean on what little knowledge I've gathered on PJ's. He's gonna be my guinea pig as I make sure to stick it to him hard on a 1080 PJ.

He also doesn't have the obstacles (beam) that I do in my basement. So I'll probably lead him down the DLP path. Course with my luck. He'll see rainbows and then I'll never hear the end of it.

And if that doesn't work. There's always the Prof that's down under who might wind up with some of that international bbq sauce called Henry being sent his way.

Can't say it enough fellas. Thanks for all the help.

Oh crud. Forgot to ask. I should put on two coats of the Widow, correct? And this might interest Mech. If it's warm this weekend. I may spray.

Just a note about spraying the HE558 BW mixes; I, personally, have had problems with my test panels smudging where I touch them with my hands when handling them, even several weeks after drying. The problem goes away when I wear nitrile gloves when handling the panels. As best we can tell, this has something to do with the oil in our skins reacting with the asphalt in the HE558. I want to stress that this only applies to the sprayed HE558 mixes.
