tauruck Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 Got my first tub of Plastisol today. Never used it before but I'm dead keen. I live in Africa so there isn't much info here on pouring plastics. One question, What pigments/colourants to use, common names etc?. Thanks guys.

If you are in S.A. and face expensive shipping charges and have long waits for delivery, you can use crayons and pastel drawing sticks (search this forum for more details), in the interim.

Richard Prager Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 You can also use the pigments made for making wax candles. They are about $1 per color block Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tauruck Posted August 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Thanks a bunch guys. The only answer I got here in S.Africa was try glitter, dead flies or anything. Go figure. Lol. I'll give the candle pigments etc a try. I knew I'd get the right advice here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimcline Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 In a pinch you can go to an art store and get some oil pastels, they work really well. I hear crayons do too thought i've never tried them. JIM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
