Wait about 24 hours between coats, but because it was not high priority I waited about 3-4 days |

What are you going to do with it. It looks like a cross between a cow paddy and a lamington |

I got onto a heap of thick foam sheets for free, if any one wants some, got heaps, and can get more.
I have started one of my enclosures, glued in the main sheets, just customising it now, what a great big mess. |

| | Subscriber | Join Date: Jan-03 Location: Newcastle, NSW | | | | Hehe Switch, I wish. This was a Christmas present to my mate who lives in our house. I built the enclosure, kitted it out with everything and got him his licence (made him sign a secret piece of paper) and picked up the lizards for the surprise. We only had Wednesday nights to do it 'cause he was out then. the paint job took 7 1/2 hours literally all at once to do. These are the sort of designs that aren't good to make :-)

One other thing I like with this stuff is it holds heat VERY well overnight, so provides nice warm spot for herps during nighttime.
