Crystal Lacquer (compiled)
(5 posts as of Jan. 29, 2000)

From: Mickey Jo  ---Ok here is a subject that even I want to know
the answers to. If you know what this is, and you have used it, please tell us all about it. Let us know the good and the bad to it. And any little tips we might need to know. Also how have you used it???

From: Ginny C --- I use crystal lacquer all the time, to make water look wet, for roses I put on a dab here and there, makes them look moist, for my candy in my Valentine box I put some on the chocolates to make them look real, I have put some on sunglasses, or windows etc.  I also use a product very similar to crystal lacquer called diamond glaze, and I like that better.

From: Sandy B. --- I have used the CL like Ginny has, on flowers,
small items, that sort of thing. Makes them really shine and stand out. I recently took a
class in shrink plastic. When finished, Crystal Lacquer was put on the pin and it made them really pretty. Much better than without.

From: Dee M.--- Ohhhhhh, I love Crystal Lacquer. It is so neat. I've used it on snowmen to make them look glossy. I've used it by putting little drops around on
my rose stamp that I painted with RPs to make it look like dew. I've used it on a fish bowl stamp I have. I colored it all in, including gold fish, let it dry and then put Crystal Lacquer on it for a glassy look. Tonight I'm going to use it on waves on a card I did last night with RPs.

From: Gail ---  ---Stamping By Candlelight. The lacquer also comes in dif. colors (I carry them here). You can change the shade of each by what you color the image first. Ever tried the colored lacquer?}
