Nice looking cabinet, Jeff!

How did you finally achieve that "fish" effect finish you were trying to get?

The object is an aqarium

The object is an aqarium stand, 180 gal salt type.
Tank is 56" wide with a bow front at 16" to 26" at center and 30" tall. The tank goes where the peices of plywood are supporting / seperating the base from the top cover.
Process was a grinder with a sanding pad over the whole surface. Then made a mask of plastic lamiate and brushed with a wire wheel, finished with spray made for aluminum, mag type, wheels.
