Blair has a very slight tooth to it vs yupo. If you take a 400 grit sandpaper and lightly abraid yupo it is functionally the same as the Blair.Hi all just a quick question are synthetic papers all alike ? Eg yupo and blair as I've just received my first yupo synthetic.if I was to then ab on blair would there be a different response to the paint? Please excuse my ignorance thanks
I haven’t tried many synthetic papers so the others with more experience have got you covered there.Thanks for the replies yeah I have fallen foul of the spiders and blow outs my ultimate goal is to spray custom bikes/cars and the like so I thought yupo might be similar to spraying a petrol tank regarding smoothness
Nice job man. Looking forward to seeing it. It’s a big difference to standard paper and it has its own elements to conquer. But it’s worth doing to avoid the misty look you get from printer paper and struggling now just makes it easier later down the road.Thanks all . Siroxx I'm still practicing I'm just doing another skull I'll post it soon it's on yupo with createx wicked that stuff is way different from standard printer paper
In my experience they’re all extremely different. I’ve had 4 types of yupo all different and behaved differently too. The Blair paper is the most superior the tooth is there but you can erase smoothly. The Yupo has a more plasticy feel and spiders easier. Tape also effects the Yupo where the Blair has no issues.Hi all just a quick question are synthetic papers all alike ?

A lot of newcomers come for an answer then disappear, it’s a shame because you don’t know what you don’t know and you’ll be surprised how much you can learn just by engaging in the threads.
