haha good luck,

if its sparkles you want I would suggest mixing them with the epoxy first & then brushing it on. As opposed to sprinkling them on after you have coated the plug. It leaves a smoother finish and keeps the sparkles protected or from potentially falling off. More sparkles = less smooth finish. And be sure to mix the 2 part epoxy really well or you will have yourself a useless sticky plug. Let me know how they turn out....

Standing on the water, casting your bread
While the eyes of the idol with the iron head are glowing
Distant ships sailing into the mist
You were born with a snake in both of your fists while a hurricane was blowing

I do the same thing when coating the guides on a rod. Add some sparkles to the coating and it looks real sweet. Made one for my granddaughter and it's killer when the sun shines on it.
