Relax, it's always slow on the weekend.
:cookoo
Try to be more clear on your question though, because I don't understand what you mean.

Re: question? on mold paiting
you can just pour the resin in if you want a solid piece or use a disposable brush if you want a "hollow" piece.

Re: question? on mold paiting
BJB Enterprises has a full line of resins and tints that get mixed with them. For an 89 you'll want black tint and Medium Chrome yellow (i think that's what I use). Here's their site http://www.bjbenterprises.com/
The tints are expensive but worth it.

you guys have batman emblems like the 89 emblem it has 2 colors yellow and black but when you have a silicon mold of a 89 emblem what do you do to saperate the colors.
do you pour the black resin first and then the yellow.
or do you paint the mold yellow and let dray and then por black resin?
or do you paint the mold what gos black,black and the yellow ,yellow
and then pour resin en let the resin dry and stik to the paint?
o and if i paint the mold what tipe of paint wold i use?

Re: question? on mold paiting
There have been different approaches. Some pour the entire thing in Black then pour the yellow into it. Some make it 2 pieces, Pour the Black then make a yellow insert that fits perfectly into the emblem, some pour a black bat and a black ring them make a backplate and glue the ring and bat to it. What I do is pour the plack bat and ring, leave it in the mold then pour the yellow back plate after the black hardens. Then I paint the outside edge of the yellow with a model paint pen. This way is tricky because if you overpour the black part you wind up with scrap. OY. Good luck Bro.
