Then once that sets to epoxy the whole plug. Seems like to much work and there should be an easier way.
Dan, you are on the right track with that thought, but try epoxying the whole plug with the clear, but before that take a small amount of it and put some in a separate cup, then add a little glitter to that epoxy, now once the whole plug is cleared with epoxy, then you brush on the mix of epoxy and glitter. It works fine as long as you don't go heavy with your epoxy.
good luck
