Does anyone maintain a list of powders that work for shake and bake coatings? I pretty much only try to coat bullets when it is 40% humidity or less in the house.
I have Orient Red from powder by the pound and that works.
Eastwood Hotcoat Lime Green and that works great. I bought Hotcoat Translucent Grape and it won't stick.
I have had powder fail to work because I left them open in a humid environment. I just wonder if brand new powder like the Grape could be damp from the factory? It seems frustrating to buy the same powder, in another color and it won't build static to stick.
