Correction, the flourecent colors I used were Rustoleum spray paint I got at The Home Cheapo. But you'll need to spray some into a small container first , so you can pour it!! The other colors I used were Humbrol paints.

Where did you find those paints? I can't find rustoleum in those colors, let alone those smaller cans. Thanks for posting this. You've poured the paint perfectly.

[mutley474]

@royalbastardo These are Humbrol paints, I found them in a local hobby store. They are enamel and come in small little cans ( maybe 1 or 2 oz. each) lots of differant colors. Their typically used for painting models

how much borax for how much water and how warm is the water???

[mutley474]

@JustGuitarJustMusic approx. 3-4 tablespoons of 100 mule team borax ( which i found at CVS in the laundry section ) You my have to play around with the amount a little. 4 gallons of room temp water , about 75 degrees, in a 5 gallon bucket. Mix borax w/ water and let sit 15 to 20 mins

I'm surprised at how well that turned out, didn't look like it was going to be that great while the paint was sitting on the water.. good job!

@haveyouseenhim89 Yea so I have I. And no problem man. Its just as easy to be nice to someone as it is to be mean or disrepectful

But if you could be really awesome and check out my channel, preferably my newer vids, that would be awesome. but enough of my advertising schpiel.

You have yourself a nice day sir.

[haveyouseenhim89]

@TheLtdan93 oil is all that works if im not mistaken.if u ever have any questions about the process just ask me....ive made a small business doing this for people in my town ...thanks for being the only cool person ive ever seen on youtube

[TheLtdan93]

@haveyouseenhim89 Yea well I'm not gonna deny what I said was phrased in a stupid manner. haha. What I meant to say was you can just use oil based hobby paints because the oil in the paint will keep said paint on top of the water. Its what I use.

Have a nice day
