Every bumble bee painted rock exhibit, at our recent Beeline, received a comment. However, the base coat of some of the rocks from our friends at Lichfield Kindness Rocks (LCR) received a raving review due to its wonder and iridescence.
Taff Rocks admin contacted the admin from LCR and asked about the paints. Once we were able to determine the brand, supplier and colours etc, we were right on it and trying them out.

LCR suggested that they worked best when used over a light base coat and, in all honesty, we have to agree.
The ones you see here were purchased from Hobbycraft and these were the only four colours available there on the day of purchase. But, if you check out Amazon, you will find a larger selection of colours for your enjoyment. They average out at about £4.00 for a 100ml tube
These are amazing paints! And the colours, especially the green / yellow one, is truly amazing, but this is a personal preference.
You will require the light base coat and, once dry, probably about two to four thin coats of the paint itself. but the effects are amazing.
