Okay, I've been searching for DAAAYS (read: two days, idly, on and off) trying to find a post for reference. It was in one of the altered or trimmed deck threads (I think), and some genius person had somehow completely covered the back of their cards. The deck was thicker, obviously, but they seemed pleased with it.
Has anyone else done this, with contact paper or anything else? I'm about to trim my Dali deck because it's JUST a tiny bit too big for me to comfortably shuffle, and I figured that if I was going to change the backs, it would make more sense to do that before I trimmed. It's a very thin deck that I think could stand to be thicker, though I don't mind the designs of the back too much (it's Dali signatures over and over).
The problem: I'm a dedicated riffle shuffler. I don't use this deck much now because it's beautiful but too big, but I know I won't use it at ALL if I can't riffle the damned thing.
So anyone who has covered their card backs somehow:
1) How's it holding up?
2) What did you use?
3) CAN YOU RIFFLE THE DECK?!
Thanks so much!
