GB GONE Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 (edited) Where can I get some????? LC no longer carries it and the poly stuff I got bleeds and curls. I bought mine in bulk bofore the poly flake issue so now I can't get any!!! I will even suffer with the metallic purple. Can anyone recommend a source? Thanks!!!! Hmmm... Maybe Sam is still around???

GB GONE Posted June 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Sorry meant .035 to .040 purple. I have some blue-purple hex that curls less but I need some good old purple... Don't want to buy a pound from anyone until I can be sure it won't curl or bleed.... Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bass4cache Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 LC stocks "Black Grape" . It's a pretty good purple, its a poly flake that holds it color well. ........... that is unless its changed in the last little while? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup black grape is a slightly darker purple but still looks great in junebug or gp purple. However, it does curl very easily so you have to keep the temp around 300 or a little lower. Fine if you inject but it can cause problems with pouring. I have been using it for about a year now and like it, but like I said its a little tricky to work with.

powerworm Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 the purple i have comes from i-spike it and it works great for injecting and less than 330 for handpouring if you keep it any hotter for any significant amount of time it will curl and look silvery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carolinamike Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Jim, Lureworks has it but it's in the hex shape. I don't think I've ever any square in the .40. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GB GONE Posted June 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 Thanks all. I still have a little of the purple I have used. It is metallic, not poly. Will not curl or bleed but sinks quicker. It is the purple color, not black grape color. I have black grape but not looking for that. It is .035 in size and square. I think I have a line on more so thanks all for the response. I hand pour a lot still so I don't want curled flake if I get above 300! Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
