Savage 1,781 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Im so mad at myself rn. I bought a neon green biker vest as a mix of a Judas/Enigma type look. I started to superglue sequins on it to spell out Judas on the back, but it didn't come out well so I stopped halfway through and now I don't know how to get the superglue off. It's a plastic vinyl like material (the jacket) kinda like the see through plastic on the JWT backpack. How do I get it off without ruining the jacket, and does anyone have any ideas on how to make the jacket less boring? I already spent so much $ on it.

Lemon Pie 1,318 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 you could leave the back part full of sequins, it would look beautiful and stand out from the crowd 𝖎 𝖜𝖆𝖓𝖙 𝖞𝖔𝖚𝖗 𝖘𝖙𝖚𝖕𝖎𝖉 𝖑𝖔𝖛𝖊 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HotLikeMexico 4,961 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 What kind of glue did you use? In architecture school we used this thing called “un-cure” to remove already glued parts on acrylics and plastic, and it removes the residue as well if you applied more after Im assuming the jacket is like a thin PET-G type material.

likeitrough 5,728 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 i don't think you should go back in with the sequins and superglue. my suggestions include: layer another vest/jacket over it. less reliable suggestions include: get fkn crafty and make a fringe, cropped vest to go over it. or really just any sort of cover that you can wear as a layer. :for example if you're really set on those sequins just **** it up fam. put a **** ton on and be a messy disco ball.

Zander 14,890 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 I saw this a while ago... You could also spray paint (or paint) the Enigma logo on the back using a template? Maybe add some studs / spikes to the epaulettes, lapel or collar and go the more punkish route. Really depends how much you want to do to it or keep simple as the colour itself is actually really ****ing cool. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand If you tried writing out Judas but it got sloppy, it may be easier just to make a cross or something on the back. I’m not nearly as creative as other people on this thread when it comes to this stuff , but if you want something simple that may be a nice easy start at least See The Best In Everyone Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
