    Try a little bit at a time eg 2 parts orange, 1/2 part white. It is amazing what happens with just a little bit.

    They all look good but #3 as bumpy as it is you need to add more clear do a test dip and add more as needed until it smooths out for you. I learned a lot from here and other sites before I got good at it.
