J Larsen Posted February 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 To get the image you have to coat the surface in an extremely thin layer of gold, so some of the surface irregularities may be due to that rather than the vinyl itself. But I'm sure the grooves themselves aren't perfect... nothing is, especially when you look close enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
