Sandman,

Larger 4oz jigs get tough in that little jar don't they. Really need to buy more paint and like others said dump in a bigger container.

I have noticed that some colors do swipe and fluff better than others, don't know why.

The extra paint will never go to waste, When I get low on a color I start mixing colors together which makes weird colors some good, some bad.

Have been using my wifes oven tough. Thought it wouldn't be that bad since I'm not melting the lead. But like crafty said maybe I shouldn't.

I am very impressed with the awesome hard finish, tough not rock proof. I have been thinking of experimenting with boat fittings like my morse shifting box. The chrome is going and I am thinking of disassembling heating and sifting powder over it. Might come out nice.
