FX Glass


[www.smooth-on.com]

For the 'Monitor Explodes' gag, I'll need a few panes of special fx glass. The stuff I've previously made is only convincing from a distance because it is too yellow and riddled with bubbles. So I'm looking into how to improve it.

Here's the current recipe: www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Lot/9373/SCREAM/glass.html">

Seems to be the best low-budget one out there. But I got an idea from one of the professional plastic breakaway glass websites ["www.smooth-on.com"].They use a vacuum chamber to remove bubbles from their 'glass' while it's still in the pot. I think I'll try building one of my own. =D
