    This has been on my to do list gotta invest on all the start up materials/tools, definitely not cheap to start but I appreciate this video. You guys are the best!

    Great video! Just make sure the resin that is used contains a UV inhibitor or it will discolor and get brittle over time.

    Who could you contact to make a silicone mold if you had a tail light that you wanted to get clear lenses for?🤔

    I am making mine for my actual project, I know they existed for my car but sadly didn't produce them anymore, used ones are really rare and expensive, so this is the only thing I can do for my car

    good tutorial, normally you want to preheat the mold in the oven before putting it into the pressure pot to have a more even temperature across the thinner areas of the mold, I'm curious if you had tried that at all? clearly your current process with working just fine though.

    • @illumaesthetic
      @illumaesthetic  2 года назад +9

      We preheat all our molds - there's simply too much stuff to go over and we just forgot to mention it this time around. If this video does well enough we'll go back and touch on all the small details we missed.

      Resistors based off which you need. Usually 3 or 6 ohm in-line.
      Or a canbus eliminator wired in the circuit
