Talking How I do wrinkle paint n photos

Painting wrinkle is similar to regular painting but heat is the issue for getting consistant sized wrinkles and a pleasing pattern.

First prep the work as normal, clean is the deal. Spray one coat on light to medium - not heavy. Depending on temp wait 5 - 10 minutes and spray again using a different pattern - start out from the opposite side or end.

Wait 5 - 10 minutes and do a third light coat and then place it in the sun or wash it with a heat lamp. as the wrinkles form keep moving the heat lamp or rotate in the sun. Cool weather is really not a good time to do this unless its in a heat maintained building and then you must use the heat lamp to touch up areas that are slow to form.

Enjoy the photos and my other albums, WDY

I am going to post photos of myself as I have aged.
You can see how I have wrinkled over time.
Not much pop though as I have only one son.


Sorry, slow day.
