[MakeLV] Workshop idea

[Josiah Ritchie]

The trick is getting it to spray evenly inside the jar. Ellis was working
with a similar product on his first trial and it was going on too heavy in
some areas and not at all in others. Perhaps a tweak to the method would be
helpful. Would that stuff stick well and look good on the outside of the
jars?
