Re: Wolfe and Diamond FX

I had Tag Black, it was very creamy and thick, hard for detailed lines. Then got DFX Black and its perfect. Not the same consistecy as Tag. I have to try the Wolfe.

Almost all my product is DFX, mostly because I went online and looked around at what other people said they liked. I found a poll somewhere that listed DFX as the most liked facepaint and Wolfe as second. After that, it was a matter of price. I'm excited to try the new tag split cakes I just bought from Metina. I heard there was a rumor about DFX, but I never really found what it was. As long as it's safe and it works well, I'm happy.

DFX has lost my vote. You can find the thread on here Wink

The worst customer service ever. They made a big public display, on Facebook of all places, about fake paint and to stop using it because it could be dangerous! Crazy! Apparently, their USA distributor had a problem with stocking and was told directly from DFX to label the paints herself(might have even purchased some directly from China and labeled those, too). Now DFX will not reimburse the American retailers or the American customers. IMO They basically spit in America's face! Yuck!

Sillyfarm carries Tag I think.

Metina has Tag in the FP Forum Shop!

TAG is really nice. Great colors to pick from. Very Happy

The white is too thick for good line work. I've used it for practice on designs, but doesn't flow like it should. It's a great base though. I haven't tried the black. I'm all about my black Wolfe Smile

I have a new 90gm so I'll be using it for a while Wink

Where is the thread about DFX and what happened to the USA distributor problem. I have DFX and can import it into NZ but I would like to know what happened so I can get the full story. Thanks

It's a rather long thread, but it can be found at:

Have used DFX in the past and use it now and will continue to use it going forward. Their white and black to me can't be beat for ling work, with wolfe coming in a close second. I love the vividness of DFX colors, not to say I don't you other colors in other brands. DFX is the mainstay of my kit but I have encorporated other brands as well.
