I know some of you don't have the store near you but if you're interested in it you can go to Sbars Inc.
https://www.sbarsonline.com/sbars/t-contact.aspx (https://www.sbarsonline.com/sbars/t-contact.aspx) fill out the form and tell them where you live and ask for a list of stores near you that carry it. Very heat resistant.

The $500.00 minimum to open an account is tough to swallow.

Didn't see the $500 minimum part, but I couldn't even find the glitter section even when I searched glitter.

They have a lot of nice glitters, just that a guy has to order a minimum of 5 C's according to what I have read.

Okay - The link I provided is for you to fill out. In the message block say
"Saw bottles of Nicole Craft fine and ex-fine glitter on one of my fishing sites. I'm interested in it but don't have an AC Moore store in my area, could you please send me a list of stores in my area that carry it, or where I can order it" You can call those stores and ask them if they have it in stock or if they can order it for you. Then you only have to order single bottles.
If you want to take the long route go back to the site click on the category tab, go down to general, move your cursor to the right and click glitter but here's the straight link!LOL

The bottles I get start on page 6.

The real question is how it works in a fluid bed?
I get powder paint from a buddy with a commercial lure business. He used a electrostatic gun to paint. With that method the paints containing glitter (Power Bait from Prismatic) have a very nice amount of glitter on them.
Using the same paint in a fluid bed I get very little glitter on the baits. As I use the paint you can start to see more and more glitter in the cup.
So what I do is use decals to get that effect.
