[QUOTE="taxidermist, post: 106398, member: 1795"] Paint the boat is parts, top, middle and nottom. on the top add the right thinner to slow the drying of the base coat. while it is still wet toss the flakes on it, about 3 lbs needed without a buster gun. now with rubber gloves on pat down the glitter flakes lightly. you may have to add more paint on some areas, but you want it heavy and wet. once the base coat and patted down flakes are dry. clear coat it. the cheapest clear is as good as the most expensive here, get the products that make the clear more flexible. Seal with three light coats and when they are set, one medium coat to seal everything. The flakes should all be under the clear coat. [/QUOTE]
