Xplorer mods from singapore

31 March 2016 - 11:20 AM

Does anyone here own any of Xplorer's mods? The Centurion demo video looks pretty sick. And my interest is also piqued by the prospect of turning my Longstrikes into actual usable blasters!  They mod kits are crazy expensive though and I'm not sure if the quality is as good as the price implies. Would love to see a review from someone.


vinyl dyes still exist? Dupli Color or SEM?

31 March 2016 - 10:48 AM

Hey gang, last thread on this topic is a few years old, so per forum rules I'm kicking off a new discussion in hopes of getting some newer information.

 

So there have been quite a few mentions of Dupli-Color Vinyl Dye in the forums, but I've only been able to find Dupli-Color Fabric & Vinyl COATING. It sounds to be a completely different product, since the concept of dyeing is quite different from coating. So what happened to the vinyl dye?

 

I've also read a few positive mentions of SEM vinyl dye. I'm mostly interested because it's available in many more colors. However, similar to the Dupli-Color conundrum, I am only able to find the SEM Color Coat for Vinyl. Again -- coat instead of dye. The product description even goes as far as to insist that "Color Coat is not a dye, but a fade resistant flexible and permanent coating." What gives? I'm pretty confused now. 

 

Has anyone used both SEM and Dupli-Color? What are your experiences with them? Comparable? And I'm hoping that everyone still agrees that dye-ing blasters' ABS is superior to just painting it.

 

Thanks for all your input.
