    Sorry about that yelowjacket! I kinda left that out! High Gloss Clear is what you need to add. You can get a pound of 200% Gloss at Rosey's Powder Coating for$12 + shipping or you might check locally for Hi Gloss Clear, like at Sherwin Williams.

    x2 on the clear!!! your colors are fine just add a tablespoon of clear to each one. If you're going to start mixing colors whether you think you'll need it or not buy the clear by the pound!!! You'll go through it faster than you think!!!!!!!

    Let us know how you make out.

    When he first started we told him to run and that his wife would want to strangle him but as you can see he didn't listen to us!!!!!!!!!LOL I've watched him become an excellent painter and tyer from when he started and he's now helping others. Myself I took a year off from making any jigs but poured some and painted some and still haven't tied any and probably won't while my grand daughter is here as she just wants to go fishing. Good luck and if you need help just post in the regular section and we'll help you out.

    Can somebody explain why one of my custom color mixes changed color when I baked it but the other one did not change color? The top two were baked at the same time at 325 for 20 minutes. The bottom two have not been baked. All of them have glitter in them. The one good thing that I learned is that I can make two colors from one custom color mix.

    Top pic top left looks bumpy - are you dipping in a jar??? If so you have to stir up the powder after a few dips or everything is tight. On a couple of them it looks like they got more powder on them than the others.
