RayburnGuy Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 Hey guys, A little while ago I had to reformat my computer and saved everything but the bookmarks. Major screwup on my part. Could ya'll help me out with some links for holographic foil? I remembered Jones Tones, but unfortunately all I could find there were "sets" with several different foils included in one package. I can't see buying a "set" and then not using 90% of it. Any help will be appreciated. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdL Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 http://jonestones.com/product_info.php?cPath=4&products_id=35 Ben - I went to the jones tone web site and found a a page where they have bulk or single sheets available. The first page only showed set but under bulks there was this page. Have a great Christmas and New Year. Ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayburnGuy Posted December 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 Thanks Ed. I didn't see that page. Only problem is the least you can buy is a 50 foot roll. The plain colors are over $30 and the patterned colors are over $47. I won't live long enough to use up a 50' roll. You used to be able to buy the sheets in whatever color, or pattern, you wanted at Jones Tones. Not sure why they changed that up, but I can't see paying that much money just to do a few baits. I do appreciate your effort though. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayBee Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 Is this what you were looking for? http://jonestones.com/product_info.php?cPath=4&products_id=34 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayburnGuy Posted December 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 Yes and no JayBee. They are the single sheets, but I'm not really seeing anything at jonestones I'm really wanting. And I was hoping for a link to something other than jonestones to see what else was out there. I've spent a couple hours on the 'net, but haven't come up with anything yet. Was hoping someone here at TU could point me to something I haven't seen already. There was a holographic pattern that was called lazer rain drops that I'm not able to find. Also looking for something in silver with a holographic pattern that looks similar to the engine turned pattern you see in steel.

RayburnGuy Posted December 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 Thanks Nova. I'll have to give Ebay another look. Got disgusted after the first couple hundred and gave up. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayBee Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 Ben, try this link out: http://www.holographiceffects.com/reflective-vinyl.php. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayburnGuy Posted December 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 Thanks JayBee. I saw exactly what I was talking about as soon as the page opened. I truly appreciate the help. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saltshaker Posted December 24, 2013 Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 Ben, the home page lists that stuff as "vinyl". Is that gonna work on a fishing lure? Sounds too thick. I didn't read any farther...mind you. Might wanna try something like that, too. Let me know when you decide it'll work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayburnGuy Posted December 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 hhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Didn't notice it was vinyl. After spending hours online looking for it I was so glad to see the pattern I was looking for that "vinyl" didn't even register. It might work as I'm not wrapping it too far up onto the "shoulders" of the bait. If I try it I'll come back with a report. Thanks for bringing that to my attention Stan.

They only sell in 50 and 100 foot rolls. No way I'd ever use that much. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jdeee Posted December 25, 2013 Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 I have used the halo graphic foil gift bags they sell at most dollar stores. It depends on what you need to do with it, but it can be glued to most surfaces and Etex covers it with no problem. They usually have a large selection of patterns and colors, but you might have to wait until they restock after Xmas. For a buck a bag it's really cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtx Posted December 25, 2013 Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 Ben, have you looked at stampie foils. Kind of like jones tones.The have some with a fish scale look. Also a while back someone one here figured out how to apply it to baits. But it wasn't me. I tried and failed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayburnGuy Posted December 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 (edited) Stampie foils is one of the bookmarks I lost. Thanks for reminding me. Ben p.s. Do you have a link for it? I did a quick search and came up with everything but stampie foil. Edited December 25, 2013 by RayburnGuy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassguy Posted December 25, 2013 Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 (edited) Ben, I think I found what you were looking for, correct me if I'm wrong. Just click here...FOIL Their website is down for service, but I did find the foil on other links, but this one should be the one to purchase their products. Here is another link for you to check if it's correct stuff. CLICK Jerry Edited December 25, 2013 by bassguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayburnGuy Posted December 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2013 Thanks Jerry. I bookmarked them again. Maybe I won't forget to back them up if I have another catastrophe. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayburnGuy Posted December 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 Hey Ben What color you looking for ? Mike Mike I was looking for a silver foil with something similar to a scale pattern. I've seen some foil with a pattern that looked like an engine turned pattern that I'm thinking would look good.

RayburnGuy Posted December 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 Thanks Stretcher. I saw some foil on that site that I'm thinking will work just fine. And you don't have to buy a 50' roll. thanks again, Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
