etching another question

[jammie]

I have another question. I etched some beads, wanting to leave some murrini shiny, I painted them with nail polish. I think I wasn't careful enough and left a little on the outside of the murrini on the  bead where i didn't want it, so figure I  can etch them again, when I paint them with the polish this time, is there a good way of only getting the polish only on the bit I want. The actual varnish brush is maybe a bit wide.

Id use a really fine paintbrush and wash it in varnish remover..

I use a wooden toothpick to drop it in the middle, then push it out with a tiny brush.

I cut about two-thirds of the bristles of my nail varnish brush away

When I was doing my poppy bricks I used PVA and applied it with the end of a thin mandrel hope that helps? Xx

Ah that might be easier.
