[QUOTE="Ryan Gottlieb, post: 106651, member: 2548"] OK, I'm gonna share a big secret... Water base white out is your friend!!!! I use it all the time instead of spray. 1.lightly sandblast the abutment to cut down reflection and help the whiteout stick. (do not blast gold hue abutments unless you don't want gold hue abutments :) 2. use water to thin out water based white out. (make it really thin, like a slurry) 3. apply whiteout to the abutment and allow to dry for 20 seconds . 4. using a clean tissue, wipe off as much as you can. (don't create friction by buffing the abutment, this will put a shine on it) 5. SCAN!!! 6. clean the abutments. it works. remember, its not color, its reflection. the best part about this technique is that it is so thin that you don't have to adjust your die interface, and you can handle the abutment with out fear of wiping it off. this was done quickly just so I could take photos for this post. please excuse any sloppy work. :) [ATTACH=full]5353[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]5354[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]5355[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]5356[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]5357[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]5358[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
