[Colors I Promised Re-visited]

Sorry Red :oops: I tried to post it on the sticky but it didn't work.

As for the time pasted:- I still get very excited about new colors and I usually run right out to the shop and try them. I keep forgeting that not everyone is like me. (they have a life, lol)

I'm rather new to this "forum thing". Bear with me, I'll get the hang of it.

Thanks for the info.......Nova

Has anyone tried the recipies I posted earlier? If so; what do you think?

I know a lot of you have looked at them.

[Water or Oil color test?]

I've never done that before. Good thought though to try an inexspensive medium to experiment with.

Oil would only work if your dye is oil-based; otherwise it won't mix with the oil.

You have to play with it a little. Start with 1/8 tsp then pour one out; have a look; then go from there. Either add another 1/8 tsp or more and have another look. Continue on until you get what you want.

Expect to ruin a batch or two when you are trying to make new recipies though.

Be careful with the heat as it will change the color a little.

[Colors I promised]

:idea:

Here are some recipies that I promised last nite. I use LC colors.

Natural Worm

4 oz. rubber

4 drops pumpkinseed

1 drop natural brown

glitter your choice

Purple Camo

4 oz. rubber

14 drops purple

14 drops natural brown

green glitter

Motor Oil camo

4 oz. rubber

5 drops natural brown

20 drops motor oil

2 drops green

brown/silver/red/and green glitter

Motor Oil

4 oz rubber

2 drops black

14 drops golden yellow

I have found that almost any combination of colors which include natural brown will change the base color when you hold up to the lite.

Give these recipies a try and let me know what you think.

Hello everyone. This is my first post on this site. I've been roaming through the site for a while now and I must say thanks to all you folks who post ideas because you have helped me a great deal.

I've been pouring baits for some 10 years now but I did not have contact with anyone who poured. In other words I've been in a bubble.

My question is does Calhoun Plastics have a website and if so what is it?

Because I've be isolated I have come up with some interesting colors(how about a motor oil that looks like motor oil). I will post some of the colors soon. I have another color that goes from pink to neon green when you hold it to the light.

In any case this a GREAT site. Keep up the good work.

Thanks.....Nova
