What was the mixture to get that orange pumkinseed pic on the top left. I really like that orange. Also what is yoir favorite clear you use to mix with? All od those colors look great!
SW, I got that mixing 2 parts Orange with 1 part Green Chartreuse and 3 parts Clear. Then I added 4 different glitter's, about 1/2 tsp each Blue, Yellow, Holo Chartreuse & Red. I buy the 90% Gloss Clear from Rosey's. It's good stuff, I mix it with everything except my candy color's.Quote:

I really like the grey stone. That is sharp.
Hey Pepop!
Just today I received two jars of "Clear" so I can try some of these recipes.
Your photo of "Gray Stone" just blew me away and that is the first one I tried.
Sadly, mine did not turn out like yours... almost no black mottling, just a very nice "gray" - -
which I can use, don't get me wrong.
After combining the three ingredients, I made sure to shake-and-roll the jar even more than I do
a new color shipped to me.
I know that you use Rosey's colors - - is that Sky White different than Pro Tech's White?
Maybe that is the problem.
I think I will add a bit more Black to my mix and try again...
What do you think?
UPDATE -
After that previous post, something went-off in my brain . . .
I realized that your photo was VERY large, so I looked at my heads again under a magnifying glass
and guess what?
The black mottling is there, just more subtle than yours.
Yeah Afterdark, I enlarged it to show the detail. Jig in hand it's visible but not that pronounced. Glad it worked for you.
New Color for Me - - -

"Strawberry Cheesecake"
1 part Pro-Tec "Ruby Slipper"
1 part Pro-Tec "White"
1 part Pro-Tec "Clear"
Nice color of pink and I like the name :ThumbsUp
That's a great color! I'll be trying that soon.
Can I ask what is probably a dumb question to you guys but been wondering. In most of the custom mixes you folks do you add clear, does that change-enhance the colors or is it just used as a filler? Thanks.
Cray, I have wondered about that myself, and actually still wondering. The clear seems to haveQuote:

By that I mean the incorporating a high gloss but totally transparent powder gives the original an added gloss it didn't have to start with. An example, I took my Matte Black (80% gloss) and doubled it with my 120% gloss clear and now my black has a real nice shine to it and it's still just as blackQuote:
