Now to let it cure and see if I came close enough on my pearl count.
Seeing as how my original mix was like 3 grams of pearl to 700 ml of clear I had to sort of guess at the amount for 150ml of clear.
Last accurate scale I had that could measure less than a gram was traded for a lava lamp years ago. Still have the lamp though so that’s cool..hehe.
So here with one of the original painted panels beside. It feels like I may have more pearl in the new paint, but hopefully it’ll blend after hitting it back through the grits with the compound steps.
