First off, Id just like to say that this forum is great. So many knowledgable builders. I always get good advice here. thanks.

Anyway, I want to try marbelizing the guide wraps on a rod Im building now. I dont really know how to do it. I think I would like to do a silver underwrap with gudebrod HT metallic, then black NCP over the guide feet and then marblelize blue and silver between the guide feet. never done it before.

I know that LS supreme is not the best finish for marbelizing but thats what Ive got. Also, if you guys could let me know where I could pick some of the right materials/pigments up that would be great too. thanks for the help.

Jared

Hey Jared,
There is an earlier thread on the same subject.
First, get Putter's DVD at www.@#$%& They are sponcors.
I cant help with advise as I am going to have to try it for the first
time soon as I get some time. I do have Putter's brief tutorial but
it is not as complete as the DVD of course. I would be happy to
email it to you if you send me an email to reply to. OK.

Do a search and use "all dates" you will get lots of info!

Jared, There is an article on marbleinsing in the library at the top of the page and a discussion a few post down from this. Actually LS is good for marbling especially the high build which is excellant!
