<p>3rd run last night.</p>
<p>The flow is better, but I still have a lot of wax particules (like 100s micro blobs).</p>
<p>I was told by magma tower I may have a bad batch. :-(</p>

<p>Well, one thing I would say is to always run a goo kit at least 2-3 times before you make a judgement about that. Everything has to settle in, as it were, and you should see how it is after that. I'm honestly not sure about glycerin or propylene glycol, as I have never used them myself.</p>

<p>Well, for now I kind of like the white!</p>
<p>I wasn't expect it, but it looks good.</p>
<p>But I'm not really satisfied with the goo kit.</p>
<p>A lots of tiny wax particules, and I don't like the flow.</p>
<p>Too much column like and not going high enough :-(</p>
<p>I read on the gookit tutorial: more surf= more blob ; less surf: more column</p>
<p>so I want to add more surf, but I read on the forum the contrary, so who is right?</p>

<p>I wondered that myself. I have orange dye and fluorescent blue dye,,,which looks white under normal light. I still have yet to try that. Good luck, and let us know how that turned out!</p>

<p>I've just poured the melted wax into the globe.</p>
<p>The gookit bottle was so full after melting, I poured some away at the start, glad I was prepared to this and put some tissues to protect the globe!</p>
<p></p>
<p>while I'm waiting for it to cool, I'm not really sure which color I'll go.</p>
<p>I was planning to mix fluo green and normal green. Do you think the fluo will keep is property under uv lamp if mixed with normal dye?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>

I've added the dye as the was is flowing. Works no prob. Tends to float on the top, and then the wax eventually grabs it and it mixes in. If you're going for a very light color or something, add A VERY LITTLE amount, and let it mix in thoroughly before adding more.

<p>My advice is take your time, don't rush getting it done, especially when coloring the wax. Use the coil that came with the lamp. Also I'm confused what your saying about pigments and pasta lol.Read step 6 of the tutorial on how to color your wax.</p>

<p>I think you can add it while the wax is flowing, but I don't. I add it when the wax is being melted for the first time in the plastic jar. I can't comment on whether or not you can add it while the lamp is flowing - I've never done it that way. </p>

<p>I'm using my Fluidium Grande.</p>
<p>About the pigment, I read it is better to add it when the wax is flowing.</p>
<p>But I just had to take a little in the spoon, and pour it into the liquid? that's all?</p>
