Bobby Saffel Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 I really need some help making zoom's cotton candy. I've tried just about every recipe that I can find and each time the color just a shade of purple. I'm keeping the temp around 330 to keep the purple flake from bleeding. Zoom's website shows the color to be a purple, but the bait has a slight reddish-pinkish color. Any help would be greatly appreaciated. http://zoombait.com/2009/05/cotton-candy/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassSwackerBaits Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 Get some Ispikeit cotton candy color, it will get you close, also zooms plastic has a lot of salt which give it the cloudy look, you can get the same affect by adding a drop of white, but not to much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McLuvin175 Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 (edited) This --------> http://www.ispikeit.com/Store/p-623-cotton-candy-165.aspx (glitter not included). Glitter consists of Purple and Moss Green, similar shaded colors will work too like Grape or Emerald Green. Keep in mind that Cotton Candy does have some Fluorescent Pink in it. As with most Fluorescent Pinks they will change to a Blue hue when hot making them look purple. Wait till the bait cools sufficiently before rendering a judgement of whether it is a match or not for your taste. Salt always changes the look so like stated above take that into consideration. Some of Zoom's Lizards are shot on molds that I think are Sand Cast Aluminum so that gives a matte finish which can also affect the finished look compared to a polished mold.
