Swirled paint

Hey all, quick question. Back in the 90's or 00's some of the guys were using Testers enamel to swirl paint instead of wrapping butts. Can anyone point me to some information on this? I have my son wrapping now and he wants to do something crazy with the AmTak Holo guides. Thanks

Check our marbling posts here and vids on YouTube. Supplies and pigments to the left. I've never seen a bad marbling job, they always turn out in my experience.

Wade, if your son hasn't purchased his guides/tip tops yet, have him take a look at my ad under "Buy/Sell" in the forum for ATC holographic guides and tip-tops. If he sees something he can use, have him contact me and I'll gift him whatever he can use. Only have large guides left but plenty of tip-tops.
