jcapps Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 I have been trying to modify a certain soft plastic swimbait by turning them black. I have tried clothing dye and spray paint. The dye didn't take and the paint just rubs right off. I'm sure there is a solution that I am unaware of. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

mark poulson Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 (edited) Solvent based sharpies will dye soft plastics, but they do bleed. I was told that there are soft plastic paints available. I'd look at Lureworks, Lurecraft, and some of the other online suppliers, to see what they offer.
