nez said:yea but you have to be careful of wat you get cuz we got some gel at my school that started to melt after the frist use so yea
While this is true, i tried some of the stuff we have at our school that nez was talking about and gelled my mini mag, and that melted it after about 20 minutes of cable running...Footer4321 said:well all gel will melt if you let it... it depends on the saturation level... a deeper more saturated color (R88) for example will melt in about an hour of strait use... R04 on the other hand will run forever without melting.... it also depends on the fixture, wattage, intensity, how well its benched, and about a million other factors.... Rosco tends to hold up pretty well... and most lee's do as well.... and if you choose a really saturated color a heatsheild would be a good option, just be sure to put the heat sheild in a seperate frame... and if you have to ask where the heat sheild goes in the mix then you should consider a career in accounting
