is it that much cheaper than buying the $25 dollar one? Or is it just better cus you don't have to wait for shipping?heavyc wrote:buy a neoprene pad from a sporting goods store and then paint it with "plasti dip" which you can buy from Lowes (it is the stuff you can dip your pliers handles into for a better grip)
Knee Pads
Re: knee pad
How you compare may not be as important as to whom you are compared
It's cheaper... you can buy the neoprene pad for 10 bucks about anywhere, and the Plasti-dip is 6 bucks at Lowes. Plus, you can do two knee pads and a thigh pad with one can or Plasti-dip.
As an added bonus you can get high as hell from the fumes.
It takes about three coats per pad. I have a neoprene and rubber suit or armor at this point.

knee pads are lame as shit and should be considered "off" route at the Red.
If they were "allowed", I prefer the full suit.
