Well...we're back...
Is there a "better" way to apply sparkles!
There just might be!
As Spankdplank showed us in
Seafoam Spaklecaster project it is possible to use a Preval sprayer to do the job.
2 boxes recently followed me home. One was a box full of SPARKLES that might keep me supplied for the next 25 years. The other was a box full of PREVAL sprayers.
Tonight I played with them.
This is what I started with: a plastic baggie full of lavender sparkles, a PREVAL sprayer, a quart of glossy DEFT, and a gallon of what might be the world's worst lacquer thinner.
I'll tell you the reason it might be the world's worst lacquer thinner later.
Because the flake is pretty good sized, we have to remove the strainer from the bottom of the PREVAL spray rig.
Since it comes right off, the PREVAL people might have anticipated this move...or else they are trying to save money on glue!
