I know a lot of folks say resist is not for use with dyes, but I have been using them to create highlighted stamped lettering for a long time now.

Early on, I had picked up some sort of hard fiber nibs from a scrapbook store. I mount them in a handle and use 100% Resolene for my resist. It worked really well because I could paint the resist on like a pen. After a while, the tip would get where I couldn't trim and reshape it, so I'd replace it. Now, my local stores no longer care them.

I'm using a brush now, but it's not my strongest skill <g>... I sometimes get uneven resist layers that let a little more dye through in one area than another and makes the highlights uneven.

What do you guys use to apply your resist to letters and such?
