I have read the tutorial on acrylic mix ratio and i think its great but for some reason i just have trouble with it. Im not too bad with white powder but with pink's and clear i just cant seem to obtain the right ratio. When i pick my bead up it appears to be to dry with powder left and mixed at the top of the bead but when i place it down i think the bead sinks more than it should! I also tend to have product still on my brush after placing the bead. I sometimes also have problems just placing it - bead not leaving brush when placing down. Does anyone have any suggestions? Am I missing something? Thank you Charlene.
