ya agreed, it's the flat surface making contact against the bottom of the pot that is important. The toothpick is a point. You need to literally scrap anything off the bottom of the pot.
I've got my own metal stir stick already on order. I made the head of it small enough that you all can slip it into your bottles and stir them too...because I know, shaking them isn't enough. If you can't hear the bebe's be concerned. The more solvent that evaporates and thickens your colors be MORE concerned. You'll love this stick...I'll get it to Lorraine as soon as it's here (any day now). She actually was my inspiration to get it. She sent me my first "HEY LOOK AT THIS" sample.
