Piscivorous Pike Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 (edited) I have come up with a color like the shade I see on my computer. By accident and it is due to a problem I cannot diagnose. Using Bear's degassed Calhoun plastic I add per fl. oz. 6 drops of hot pink color and 3 drops of white. Most of the time this turns out a nice hot pink. If I reheat the lot it turns that shade of, I would call it tomatoe. I have tried keeping the heat down, 350 on the first mix, 300 on the remelt and it still happens. I use micro waves, 1000 watts and 1100 watt machines. I dont want that color but trying to remelt bad pours seems always to come out that way. Edited March 3, 2010 by Piscivorous Pike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
