wp8thsubMaybe I get different results because I apply heavier coats?
How thick would you estimate your single coat to be? It might help to have a rough idea when I being to apply it to hopefully optimize the result.

Thanks guys. Did several 1oz test pours with resin dyes, yet the final turbidness and color of the canal came about by accident. Multiplying the test dye amount x 6 for the main 6oz pour was in error, before half the dye was added the mix was already darker than my test piece. Considerrd aborting the mission, but instead stopped adding dye and made the pour. Luckily the darker murkiness turned out looking better than the test piece. Though still a believer in experimentation and dry-runs, sometimes just winging it turns out best.
Thanks and regards, Peter

I just apply blobs of the stuff with a soft brush instead of making brush strokes. I don't know how thick it truly is, but it's thicker than if I brushed it on like paint. Experiment and see what you get.

okie dokie. Thanks!
It sounds like some people pour their water material and then spread it around, and agitate it or brush it to get waves etc.
