smalljaw Posted June 4, 2011 Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 Go to www.livingrubber.com and check out lumaflex, it comes in white and is kind of like a heavy duty tinsel, sort of reminds me of flahabou. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psv Posted June 5, 2011 Report Share Posted June 5, 2011 (edited) How about this ? They offer 1/16 & 1/32 cuts White Ghost Edited June 5, 2011 by psv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgiaBlade Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Unless what I am reading is 100% wrong, Flashabou is mylar and it is just a fancy name for mylar that is colored.I love to do research on the web and would love to do some for you, but I need more specifics. The LPO material I suggested to you meets all your specks except that the white is Pearl White. Is that the problem? GeorgiaBlade tks guys but this is not what i am looking for anyone else?

ddl Posted June 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 there is no withe flashabou,that's why i say mylar or tinsel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psv Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Flashabou is proprietary name of Hedron products, as far as I know DDL Did you check the White Ghost tinsel link ? I do use Lateral scale, but it's totally different quality then flashabou. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psv Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 i think latheral scale dont flair verry well behind blades? I don't think so. it's heavier then even saltwater flashabou from Hedron. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark poulson Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 If I can't find exactly what I want, I mix in two or three different materials. I might try mixing the mylar GeorgiaBlade suggested with some white silicone skirt material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodtimesfishing Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 As a last resort you could go to the dollar store and get some white mylar ballons and make your own. If you wanted you could make perfect cuts by making a cutting device with blades and spacers either glued or fastened together with small machine screws. I believe FATMAN made a contraption like this for cutting zonkers......would work for cutting mylar strips of equal size Just a thought...maybe it will work for you.

goodtimesfishing Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 I was just looking in the LURE PARTS ONLINE catalog and pages 59-60 has several white flashabous, they just aren't called WHITE. I think the mag flash in silver ice looks white to me. Ice blue illusion looks very white, opal pearl looks white for the most part. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLT Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 If a white iridescent works for you, find a craft store (Around here, it's A.C. Moore or Micheals) and they have those things you can hang from the doorway and all those strands hang down for like $20 maybe. Many years of supply there, only issue is, you would have to trim it. I think it is like 1/8" wide. I use it for Saltwater jigs. Many year supply for a lot less than getting it from a tackle supply shop. They also have silver, red, blue sometimes, and green. Party supply area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
