Has anyone sprayed Plasti Dip clear Rubber on the bottom of their combiner's feet so that they don't slip and slide everywhere on their glass display cabinets? I've sprayed Tread Rite anti-slip stuff on some of my combiners feet but that is more for textured surfaces not glass. When I get my new house I'm switching over to glass cabinets and was thinking of coating the combiner feet with Plasti Dip Rubber and would be interested to know if it would work. I assume rubber would provide enough friction to stop the feet from sliding around on the glass?
Clear? The glossifier u mean? I might try black after I spray my wheels. Can always peel off so I'm not worried.
I don't know but in Australia they sell a clear rubber spray. It also comes in other colors as well but I figured clear would work best for all different colored feet
I was gonna use those little rubber feet bump things that come with some electronic gadgets and are at the bottom of some laptops and what not. Adhesive so not permanent and should give the same effect more or less.
If I understood the product description correctly, I think plasti dip is non permanent anyways so you can peel it off if you don't want it on anymore. I'll have to look into them in a couple of weeks when I'm on holidays and report back. So far the Tread Rite stuff works great on most surfaces (other than glass). All it took was 1 coat and it works just like sticking them non-slip tape on the bottom of the combiner feet.
I currently only use the stuff on my Camaro, and maybe my truck here soon. Not sure if I'd use this on a figure though, although I guess if you didn't like it you could just take it off.
The plasti dip Glossifier is only meant to be applied over an existing coat of plastidip so beware of applying that directly to plastic surfaces. It might not be permanent, but good luck getting it all off.
This is what I found on the Plasti Dip Australia website " Plasti Dip DIY Synthetic Rubber Coating Plasti Dip is a multi-purpose, air dry, specialty rubber coating. It can be easily applied by dipping, brushing, or spraying. Plasti Dip protective coating is ideal for a broad array of do-it-yourself projects around the home, garage, garden and elsewhere. It protects coated items against moisture, acids, abrasion, corrosion, skidding/slipping, and provides a comfortable, controlled grip. Plasti Dip remains flexible and stretchy over time, and will not crack or become brittle in extreme weather conditions. It has been tested and proven in temperatures from -34ºc to +93ºc. Plastidip can be dipped, brush coated and sprayed. Add more layers for greater protection and grip. Plasti Dip coats and gives a comfortable, controlled, colour coded grip to all types of tools: lawn and garden, mechanical, electrical, woodworking and masonry. (Non-skid grit can also be added.) •WOOD: Seals and protects from weathering and prevents splitting. •METAL: Reduces vibration, deadens sound and prevents corrosion. •GLASS: Shatter proofs glass objects (available in clear). Also... PLASTIC, RUBBER, FIBREGLASS and CONCRETE SURFACES! Paint onto, spray or dip almost anything! Add more layers for greater protection or grip. Not only is this stuff good, IT'S FUN!! " Is this the stuff you get in the States called Glossifier? All I know is this particular one comes in all colors including clear. Oh and Sponge I guess a rubberized mat could be an option but when you are talking about a large glass display unit that's a lot of mats! Plus I am specifically thinking of using this for combiners cause they are so large and tend to slip and slide on glass. I would also say that laying rubberized mats on the glass would detract from the overall classiness of a glass display unit but that could just be me
This is what I use. I found a semi transparent rubber mat at ikea on the cheap. I just cut out a square or rectangle to put under the foot. Works like a charm. Even keeps my Hercules from sliding all over. Which is a feat in my opinion.
