Driftwood Posted May 25, 2019 Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 You may have to much black color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Posted May 25, 2019 Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 Add glitter first then add black slowly til it is just dark enough not to be smoke. Thin parts may still be smoke but you have to draw the line somewhere. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark poulson Posted May 26, 2019 Report Share Posted May 26, 2019 I always add my glitter/flake to my already heated plastic before I add my colorant. I have found that, for me, the glitter alone will change the color of the plastic, and I want to see that color change already included in the plastic before I try to achieve a certain color by adding colorant.
