Chartreuse Bleeding

[D.J.]

Anyone else on here have a problem with chartreuse coloring bleeding really bad? I made up some swimmers in a sexy shad type pattern and two weeks later, the thin chartreuse line has completely taken over the pearl belly. I now have chartreuse swimbaits. I am glad I caught this before I put them in any stores. Is there anyway to fix this problem?

I never had a problem using this

M-F Manufacturing

55 - Green Chartreuse (non-bleed)

e-mail me if you'd like a picture of a bait

Thanks, maybe I will give that color a try. Mine is L.C. colorant, so I will try the M-F brand.

flourescent transparent colorants are usually dyes and will likely bleed!!! chartreuse being the worst then maybe reds!!

I second Richards suggestion and do your self a favor and seperate those from your other colors or you will have alot of chartreuse plastics. The lc bleeds real bad. Frank

At first i had a problem with LC chartreuse. What i do now is only add like 4 drops to 6oz and add a drop of white, ive never had a problem since. Before i was adding 15 drops or more and they would all bleed. The only thing is that it doesnt produce a clear chartreuse, its more of a milky chartreuse if that makes sence but it doesnt bleed.
