That is what I use for the eyes on my bead heads and the eyes on the froggies. It is real easy to use. Squeeze a bit out if the tube end, touch it where you want the eye with one color. Release the tube and it will suck the drop of paint back in the tube. Take another color, make a smaller dot on the first dot. Then with black make the small pupil. I guess you were not at my house when I did a demo on this at Sowbug time. I have the small tubes they used a number of years ago, they are easier to handle then the oval tubes that it comes in now. I refill them when I need to. If the paint is a bit thick from age, you can thin it with a few drops of water. Put a few drops on the tube and give it good shake. Just a few drops at a time will do it.

Morning folks, 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? Some of them seamed to have "stiffened" up a bit and need to be thinned and mixed again. Not sure if they are salvageable yet or not. Also have one tube of copper colored glitter. There are 12 colors so it has possibility, just not sure what yet. Any suggestions? Jimi
