Prisma Pencil problem

[wlisa]

I've used a tiny jam jar with a piece if baby sponge trimmed to fit

By baby sponge do you mean natural sponge (the beige holey stuff)?

[langara]

Now it all makes sense Cara, think I need little jar and sponge if it stops you being so clumsy!

Hmmm, I have never really noticed the smell, definately doesn't make me high!! Think I will carry on as usual as it works okay for me!!

No, just a cheap soft sponge

I am using Zest it and it doesn't seem to have a smell or maybe I just don't notice. I pou a tiny amount into an old bottle cap to dip into and seal the main bottle. That is because I am good at knocking thigs over and the small amount does little harm whereas the whole bottle! I am the one who wrote off her keyboard this Christmas by puring a glass of wine all over it

I still can't get on with Zest it, I can't get it to blend my pencils at all I'm quite gutted as I'd rather have a non toxic around with my daughter as she gets into everything the little minx

[wlisa]

Where do you get Zest it from? I am using a low odour turpinetine at the moment, but it is still smelly.

I got Zest it from the art shop in the small town near us. I was surprised they had it.It seems to blend fine or maybe I don't know what to expect!

I can't smell the Sansodor either, yet I can't bear the smell of Zest it - it gives me the most horrendous headache

[ger]

I got mine from the well know auction site, I find the smell rather pongy but we all find sells different

Oddly enough I find Zest-It Pencil Blend a lot better to use than Sansodor. I've tried several times now and while the Sansodor works, it just doesn't seem to work quite as well.

I usually pour a small amount onto a cotton wool pad and leave it on a saucer - lasts for ages.

I'm very happy now as I did get the 120pc prisma set for Christmas! Now that we're home (were away for 2 weeks with family), I just need to get unpacked and straightened out so I can play! I also got a set of Copic markers and an airbrushing adapter to play with. Good job I have loads of stamps to use and colour!!

I have just got another lot of Copic markers on their way - what is the airbrushing adapter? Is it especially for the Copics? Thanks.
