well Im not sure if this counts... I made it for a challenge making a giant tag with the letter F for face on it. I made the background paper myself, using caught in crystal technique (with Klear floor polish).

I hope it counts... if it does Im upstraight again, yipee.

yes it means caught up.. its an old trading term for being neither long nor short of the market. You square up your position and you are upstraight (nothing outstanding to be done).

Caught in crystal was messy and took ages to dry and the stuff made me have asthma, but i still love it.

I think that must be the best use of floor polish I've seen, cracking piece of work LOl pun intended.
Some of the lads used to use this on their boots as a cheat, but it would shatter if you put your foot down too sharply LOL.
