McNeilco Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 Hey guys, new to pouring plastics this forum has been of the upmost amount of help. Just one topic I'm having trouble finding is getting a brighter chartreuse. Mine seems to be pretty transparent in 4 oz of Plastisol ived added 25 drops of ES Chartreuse with some silver flake. But it doesn't seem to be bright enough, how can I achieve a brighter look? images below Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flippinstick Mike Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 And I have had more success adding the colorant to cold plastisol before heating it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Driftwood Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 You might want to try a florescent yellow also. It won't be as transparent bit it will be brighter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
army-boot Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 Try adding a couple drops if white to it. When plastisol is heated it's clear. Clear + chartreuse is still going to be kind if clear. The white should add a little opacity and help it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edgecrusher Posted July 8, 2017 Report Share Posted July 8, 2017 Try ispikeit chart I find it gives excellent results, you can buy either opaque or semi clear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McLuvin175 Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 LureWorks/Spike-It's Chartreuse 181 is the most transparent fluorescent that is not a bleeding dye colorant and works great for tail-shot colors. If you want something more opaque then look at Chartreuse 126 or Chartreuse 108. I woldnt use Chartreuse Dye 107 as it is a bleeding dye and may "green" up the black bait over time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree 107 is a sweeeeet colour, but boy it bleeds! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
