reecekennedy Posted August 12, 2018 Report Share Posted August 12, 2018 Does anyone know how this color is made? It is called "Blue Moon". I'm most concerned with the purple part. Is that airbrushed on there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Paye Posted August 12, 2018 Report Share Posted August 12, 2018 It is blue hi lite powder. You add it to the plastic when heating and mixing. Also know as blue cloisone powder. Lurecraft has it there are various shades but it looks like blue neon powder. Not sure of the product #. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reecekennedy Posted August 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2018 Gotcha. Thanks. I guess instead of using a dual injector it would be best to do the clear part and then cut the top part and then do the hi lite? That way the blue wouldn’t go to the tail.

Gary Paye Posted August 12, 2018 Report Share Posted August 12, 2018 I've never done injections. Only hand pours. And I don't know if you can air brush plastic. Its possible the tails are poured first. Then the dual color next? Not sure. Some injections are poured separately then glued together.

alsworms Posted August 12, 2018 Report Share Posted August 12, 2018 The blue hi-lite is mixed with the plastic. In this case, it looks to be clear or light smoke. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveMc1 Posted August 12, 2018 Report Share Posted August 12, 2018 This particular bait appears to have been made via production machine (3 colour machine) it will shoot the chartreuse tail, move a bar in the mold and shoot a laminate body (blue hilite / clear silver holo flake) all in one cycle. I would need to see a detailed pic of the nose and the join between the chartreuse tail and body to be 100% sure. If you're looking to replicate that exact it is surely going to be time consuming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McLuvin175 Posted August 13, 2018 Report Share Posted August 13, 2018 That's basically Bass Assassins Opening Night with a Hot Chartreuse tail. For the back color use Hi-Lite Blue with a touch of black like a light smoke. That will make the Blue Hi-Lite pop and give the blue surface shine. Clear belly with Silver Holo string.
