Want to add some tiny gliter to my epoxy. Not big flakes just small stuff to put a little dazzle in the coating. What is the best stuff and who has it?

Any fine glitter will work. Mudhole has it too.

Most craft stores have it

Hey James

I've used the Flex coat Iridescent Finish System with great results and the glitter is tiny
hope this helps

Any glitter will work the smaller the better like Micro fine glitter is the best and you can fine it at most craft stores I find that a small amount works best and the colors Pearl green work best.

I have used mudholes pearl glitter. Only need a tiny amount the pearl works with atot of thread colours

I use multicoloured glitter from Michaels. In fact, just 30 min ago put second coat of epoxy mixed with glitter, over the first clear coat. Then will do one more without it. As stated, you dont need much of it. It will sparkle more after you put a coat or two over it. I used it over cobalt blue, looks nice. Other good combinations i had- candy apple, black, dark green, royal blue, charcoal. Did not like it much on lighter coloured thread, but still adds some sparkle and looks different from the average rod. Also, used it twice on tiger wrap- nice too. So, go ahead, give it a try.

I do a fair amount of PR casting and I use Mica Powders to color.

Same stuff women use to make their own makeup, craft/art stuff. I buy what is called "Sample Size" packets for $0.95 as a little goes a real long ways.

This is one of the sites I use and there 126 colors so you should find what you need color wise.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I have some good options to try now.

I have used the glitter from Jann's Netcraft and a little goes a long way
