Hello. I love this. Very good product! thumbs up! But I have a question I hope someobe can help me with, I see that what I am asking about has been mentioned before - But I was at my hobby store today to buy some flat spray. Nobody know what it was. I ried explaining what I thought it was and they found some spray that is used to spray drawings drawn by pencil to protect it. Is this flat spray? Hope my question is understandable.. if not.. can somepne link me to a english shop that sells this so I can read there what it might be?

Oh ... Just ask your store the spray to remove texture or shine , something alone the lines .
At least that's how I used to find mine in a small store ...

So, I guess the cost is quite expensive...$30 for the box set and $25 for the spray...am I right?

I think Testors Dullcote or Krylon Matte Finish can be used as a substitute for the spray suggested.
We know it for something else in the magic world. It has the same function. |

I know it is not neccecary but its ok to have all the tools here where I live things like this is rather highly regulated. I found something called fixative spray and acryl matte varnish. Seems to me that the varnish makes a solid surface so I think that will not do to well. Anyway thanks for the links and help. I am on the search now. Only thing they sell is gloss spray here hehe

My answer to two questions you guys have had:
1) No. I did not purchase the box set. Only the download. But if you have enough money to spend and are a tactile learner or "unexperienced" gimmick maker, then I would definitely reccomend you purchasing the box set. Seeing and feeling a mostly finished FLAP card could definitely help a ton during the learning process. 2) For the spray: I use Krylon Matte Finish which I bought from a local ACE Hardware and it works perfectly. - Ari |

Hi all!
I would really like to know the materials needed to construct the flap cards. Can someone list all of the needed materials (if possible to do so without exposure)? Thanks in advice! |

Thanks! I think I have a matte finish spray that I bought to make my inv****** de**. It sounds like I only need to buy the box set.

I REALLY wish someone would manufacture these and sell them "ready to perform".
Personally I would pay a premium not to have to make them myself. Is it possible this will happen down the road? Thanks for any information! |

Just go through the procedure and you'll get your first one done , then the subsequent few will be much easier . You really do have a pay a PREMIUM to ask HONDO to make one , and from what I remembered it's quite expensive for a single flap card which anyways , will break eventually and you've to re-tie the elastic loops yourself . So might as self DIY one up . Go and try one , it's not very difficult .
