was wondering if anyone has played around with this? I did alittle today, I didn't lay it on too thick, and now Im thinking of doing a tiger wrap this way, add giltter to the first stage of wrap, then lay the second wrap on top with no glitter, don't know if this will affect the 3-D very much?

What ya think?

I added glitter to a marbeling section I did once. I used the superfine stuff that is nearly the consistency of fine white sand and it came out well. Customer wanted a "galactic" effect.

Not sure how it would affect a tiger wrap.

Here is a picture of it

There's a really easy way to figre this out - spend 10 minutes on a Tiger Wrap and see how it looks.

Cool Ron, it for sure looks like a 1970's album cover. That brings back some memorys' lol

I used .015 sized glitter. kept it thinned. I'll try and take a pic of it tomorrow.

I have done it several times with good to excellent results. I just mix the glitter directly into the finish as I am mixing it up. I don't even put a layer without the glitter over it. There is no roughness, or anything, especially if you use the really fine glitter like the stuff that mudhole and several other sponsors offer. And it looks awesome in the sunlight. You can use quite a bit of glitter, more than I originally thought would work.

I've done the same as James many times, I request the client's permission first, some guys just like plain Jane. Built two rods this winter as an experiment where I have glittered epoxy applied to cork handles with five coats of Birchwood Casey Tru-Oil, really looks cool. One is a personal rod and the other a birthday present for my son-in-law, so how can he complain. It will be interesting to see how it holds up, can always refinish if it doesn't work.
