Applying mica line

[mzimm]

Is there a better tool or way to apply a mica line than using a tea strainer and sifting it on? I'd like to figure out a way to spray it on, or "poof" it through some kind of blower. I even thought maybe using a bulb syringe like this:

Has anybody tried that?

Some micas just don't sift through my tea strainer evenly enough. Not bad, but I'm looking for an even better way.

No, I haven't, but that could work. Thanks, LofJ!

Oh yes! Obsidian, I think that's the ticket. If I can find these bottles in clear plastic, they would even work for mica storage and "proofing" it on. Thanks so much!
