kevtherev Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 I have someone who wants some lures with a "safety flourescent orange paint" brightness. Any suggestions as to how to get that bright with colorant and other additives? Thanks guys. kevtherev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonteSS Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 The LC Flo Orange is bright. You need alot to get an opaque bait, espesially if it has thin appendages. You need to add flo coloring before you heat the plastic. This one is still transparent. Sorry I didnt count the drops. ....Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 You can also use flo red it is a little more orange than the orange. That sounds wrong but it is right. That is with LC colorant. I can give you cc for four cups around 30. To get it more opaque you can add some white and it will get you there but you may have to add more colorant. I shoot alot of those types of colors. Spike it has some too that are real concentrated but dont have formula for them yet. Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carolinamike Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 The color # you're looking for from Spike-It is orange #405. This is a bright flourescent orange. It is an opaque color. Just call Bruce and tell him the color # and he'll fix you up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
