You'll want to have a mixture that is a little on the thick side...not too thin. When you go to paint it on, you will know it if is to thin...it will be streaky.

Also, I prefer to use extract, rather than alcohol. The alcohol seems to make it too watery to me!

Give me everclear! HeHe. I guess I like everclear cause what ever dusts I don't use, all I have to do is wait a little while and the everclear completely evaporates and leaves the dust behind to be used on another day.

The ratio depends on what I am doing and how dark I want the color to be.
