    Don’t really ever measure. I just spoon some in, test paint and then add more if needed.

    Much improved. Those look good. Any idea how much you added or just eye ball it.

    Add a teaspoon at a time until desired result is reached. You can just leave heat gun and fluid bed running when adding extra glitter. I always heat my jigs hot enough that when dipped they come out shiny. No need under heating.
