Has anyone done any experimentation using fabric paint (the kind in squeeze bottles) for use in fly tying?

The little bit I have tried has been pretty unsuccessful, messy, hard to do, etc. Also, anytime I try to put the stuff on a non-porous surface, it falls off after a little bit of use in the water. I would suppose those instances would need to be sealed in Softex or epoxy, which kind of negates the advantages of using the fabric paint in the first place.

Any tips on using fabric paint? In what ways have you used these products in fly tying? The stuff is available in a wide range of colors and potentially could be useful.

Thanks,
Wes Wada
