    That happened to me also when I bought fine silver glitter supposedly for making fishing lures from a certain supplier. I wrote the supplier but they did not even bother to respond. I switched to another supplier with no more problems with glitter. I would also wait until my plastic was hot, then take it out of the microwave and only then add the coloring and glitter. I would shoot that batch into as many molds as I could and then get rid of the rest. I did not try to reheat and reuse it.

    I only make up enough plastic to use at the present time for a certain orders in the rest I throw away I don’t keep any leftovers usually they’re just a little bit left over in a Pyrex cup not enough to fool with so I just throw it away .
