be careful adding black make sure that you have plenty a white to start with then gradually put a drop of black and stir do see what it looks like if it is too light add another drop gradually mix the black with a white here is something else for you to try using a white base put in chartreuse you will come out with a beautiful shade of chartreuse cream or what they call lemon meringue you will definitely be making more of this one we used it quite a bit.

Last time I did that I think I used around 2% to 98% White and it turned out great. Had some mixed and my Grand Daughter dumped about a 1/8th ts of chartreuse in it. And it made a nice color also.

What was your mix ratio? I can get a nice speckled gray by mixing white and black in a 1:1 ratio...

Some don't mix as good as others. It's a trial and error thing.

it sure is skip. i wil not ever get any of that flashey thread from crazy angler that stuff is weak

[skiptomylu]

I only have one paint I actually mix my self and just buy all the colors I want. However I have been buying it for 5 years, but still probably bought about half of what I have in the last 2 years and most of that in just the last year.

What flash thread are you talking about? I am just not sure what you mean. I don't use any thread with flash, but I do have a good bit of very small chenille or body stuff like Poly Glimmer. I don't use it a lot, but it sure is pretty.

I will say I don't like weak thread for sure as it's a pain to tie with, but that said I have some for flies down to 14/0.
