I also have a horrible...

Re: Blaster Holster

Ok..tried it with that pattern, but i didnt like how "flimsy" it was with the cloth material I was useing....I think if I was using leather or vinyl, it would have been better... But with a few adjustments this is what I came up with.... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v204/jabba974/Snow...

Re: Bucket polishing?

Did you apply a clear coat to it? That will help keep it all shiny... I've always liked "Mother's" wax products and there web site has a lot of info on there product's.
