The gum solution is ready, will mix the stock paint/gum solutions tomorrow. I just love those hand blenders -> makes mixing gum solution very easy. Just 3-5 minutes of stirring and your gum is ready overnight (once the micro bubbles are dissipated). BTW, a question for all: What is your coating method? I still have some problems with coating, I seem to not being able to coat as evenly as I would like... (Especially with dark colors.) I use a foam brush for spreading the coating solution (as evenly as possible), then wait about 1-2 minutes (to let gum becoming slightly tacky, so that it wont leave paper unless you're brushing too hard) and even the coat with a watercolor wash brush (dragging the brush delicately in perpendicular direction). I'm especially interested in coating with a foam roller -> is there any video showing gum coating using a foam roller? Regards, Loris.
