We talked about this before but I will chime in again.
Tony uses the paint on his foam frogs he dips a a tip in the paint then
onto the foam.
I use the paint to make my own 3-d eyes. I use a coffee can lid as my plate.
I make little pools of the colored paint, copper would be great, white, chartreuse,
pearl, silver glitter etc. I tap the lid to make the pools settle. Then I add a small
pupil of black tulip paint and tap again. This is a vinyl paint when it dries you can peel the eyes
off the plastic lid and glue them with super glue gel onto your streamer pattern.
This paint can also be applied directly to streamer bodies like E-Z SHAPE SPARKLE BODY
or for ant bodies, beetle bodies, etc.
A friend of mine gave me some tubes of Fabric Paint, "Tulip Slick" in
particular. They thought that I could possible use it in my fly tying. Is
anyone familiar with this product? Can it be thinned?
