Thanks for the tips and inspirations. Question: what thickness of tape do you use? It ranges from 2 to 6 mil. Is thin or thick better? Also, I've found that die cutting gives a slight roll to the edges, making them smooth and burr-free. I cut 2 of the same shape from metal and also cut the same shape from a sheet of 2-sided adhesive, sandwich the pieces together, and the final piece has smooth sealed edges. Great for small pieces like earrings and charms. Your demo of dimensional paint sparked an idea I'm working on some pendants that use embossed metal. I need a way to finish the edge that fills the gaps caused by the embossing. I'm going to try the paint on one, but also thought about using foundry wax.
Hi thanks for the tips and I am happy to hear you are inspired by the paint finish. This is the tape I use. amzn.to/4fi0JHL I think it is 3.2 mil Thanks for watching 😊
I bought one of those devices to take the tops off of aluminum cans but they don’t work on the taller thinner cans like my soda water comes in. Just works on the regular size cans. 😢😢

Regarding metal tape, I've used that in pretty much every project for either finishing, spot repair and even embossed accents. Def give a try.
Thanks for watching. I love the tape too. It is so useful on metal projects.
There's something about those tin can beads, I must try making them.
They are fun but a little addicting. Thanks for watching 😊

Sorry to hear that. I have used mine on some of the taller cans but we mostly have the standard size cans.

The good thing is there are always more recycling 🙂
