jholland Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 I need a good recipe for Zoom's Black Grape. Been experimenting for a long time on this color and just cannot get it right. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 Have you tried Lure Craft's black grape? Unless they changed, it was dead on when I used it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassinfool Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 The lure craft black grape is what I use and if it isn't spot on its really really really close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jholland Posted December 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 Thanks for the info! How much LC Black Grape are you using in 4oz of plastic to get the desired color? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassinfool Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 I'm on vacation so I can't give you the exact recipe but if I remember correctly it is somewhere in the ball park of 30 drops per 1/2 cup of plastic. Don't hold me to that though, I can give you a better answer when I get home in a week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jholland Posted December 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 I really appreciate it! This color has been perplexing me for some reason. Why is it that the easiest ones can turn out to be the hardest. Crazy! Enjoy the Vacation and look forward to your reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassinfool Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 Just how it is sometimes, but that's part of the fun of this hobby is being able to experiment with your own recipe and create something specifically to your liking.

alsworms Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 Same mixture on my end. 15 drops in 4 ounces of plastic, which is dead on with Bassinfool. If I made Junebug (which for me was black grape with green flake), I'd use 10 drops because I wanted the green to show a little more.

Bassinfool Posted January 1, 2014 Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 Alright, back from the trip and found my exact black grape recipe is 1/2 cup plastic with 28 drops of black grape, 6 drops purple and 1 drop black all those colors are from lure craft. I took some pictures but they're hard to see but I will post them later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassinfool Posted January 1, 2014 Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 Hope these pics show up well, it was hard to get a good picture outside today with the cloud cover using only my cell phone. Anyways, here they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonteSS Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 Sometimes Black Grape looks a little blue. A couple drops of red will make it more grape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
