buckhunter300mag Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 hello I am new to making soft plastics and have started pouring my own senkos. the problem I am having is getting the colors I want to come out right due to the color of the salt. I was wondering if anyone had any tips or color recipes to neutralize the salt color. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryanmc Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 You'll have to use more colorant than you are. You can't neutralize the white of the salt, you have to overpower it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 I have found that coarser salt alters the color less. Fine salt makes the plastic milky before you add the color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonteSS Posted April 29, 2015 Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 Or use blasting media instead of salt. Then baits will be clear and no need to change your recipes. It will scratch your injector but I found it still will function fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassinfool Posted April 29, 2015 Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 Go the bead media route. Baits are soft, clear and very durable. All qualities you won't have using salt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
