    Default Coastal Scents no longer selling Mica Powder

    Hey all,
    just a heads up
    as my title suggests I have seen through a Facebook post that Coastal Scents are no longer selling Mica Powders, but as a company they have set up a website for someone to buy up all tnere old stock and start a business of just Mica powders
    it is www.micapowder.com

    CHeers

    Thanks Fly,
    i should have been a bit clearer, pearlex can be bought from a lot of places (some a bit cheaper then artshed online too)
    but this isn't a pearlex product, just mica powder


    but a few casters that I know use coastal for their value, nothing wrong with pearlex I use it too, but when you could get up to 16oz for not much more then twice the cost of pearlex(20grm) it was awesome value,
    specially when they had 40% off sale

    Nooooooooo

    Buying ~2.5t is a bit much for me, especially the postage, so can only hope someone takes up the business

    Luckily, during my last order from them we purchased 16 ounces bags of all the colors we really use a lot. They had the best prices on the market, and I'm figuring the prices on the rest of the vendors for it will get inflated(be like if we closed shop on blanks).



    When our supply of powders gets to the point of being depleted, we'll probably have had enough of the 'hobby' we started to keep prices down. The 'hobby' has turned into a time consuming 'thing'....and we'd like to get back to fly-fishing, turning wood for fun, and being able to come home after a day of work and relax! But not to worry.....we still have about 125 pounds of mica powders to use.

    I am still shipping Internationally for now.
