The glitter sold on Do-Its site in the lead section with those paints is close to .004. Limited colors though. Check the automotive paint and additives for glitters. Several of them sell the fine stuff.

Very true on automotive paints supplies. At work we stock the Lil Daddy Roth in .004 it’s the baby series. You can order it through them or get with me I might can get it for you slightly cheaper. Heck if it’s something I can use and you don’t need 2 full ounces I might be willing to split with you.
Rothmetalflake.com

Also check out tropical glitz metal flake I don’t have a way to get a discount on it like I do Roth but that’s a great flake that I believe comes pretty small and it’s a great family company who’s proceeds go to a great cause

^^agreed^^

I’m liking the gold one, that would look good with the few colors of dye we have. It’s too bad all the Michaels we have are way across town. Hobby Lobby is less than a mile away but I have read their glitters are not good for lure use long term maybe you guys can confirm or deny that.

I use plenty of hobby lobby glitter. The only ones I've had problems with are blue and red and that's just that they bleed. But do-its blue bleeds after a few reheats too.  I use glitter from any place I find a color I like.

Fair enough

I appreciate the answer I’m going to grab some blue metal flake from work and reheat it a few times and see what that does.

Some of it mostly red will bleed and of coarse blue bleeds no matter where you get it. I use glitter from where ever I see a color I like.

I thought I read some where on here that it would melt if no high temp
