Tubeman Posted September 10, 2019 Report Share Posted September 10, 2019 Question for everyone, I've been using some older root beer and pumpkinseed colorants and find they bleed into laminate layers like white or lighter colors. The only place I can find non bleed colorants for sale is MF Manufacturing. Anyone used these and are there other alternative sources to buy non bleed colorants ? Thanks, Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canga~ Posted September 10, 2019 Report Share Posted September 10, 2019 I think that every colorant manufacturer makes non-bleed colorants. I know Lureworks, Lurecraft, do-it, mf, and deacon do for sure. They should say in the description for the colorants if they are bleed or not. (I didn’t see anything on Lurecraft on if they bleed or not, but it says if they are on Doit and Lureworks sites, and I think all deadon are non bleed) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubeman Posted September 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2019 The colors I'm using that bleed are from Lurecraft. I'm not sure if the dyes that are used have changed in the past 10 years. I know pumpkinseed and root beer are prone to bleed through.

Frank Posted September 10, 2019 Report Share Posted September 10, 2019 This is from the Spikeit site under the descriptions. All color info is here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keakar Posted September 11, 2019 Report Share Posted September 11, 2019 just make sure you arent buying a dye, if its a dye it will bleed no matter what they say about it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I read was dyes have much finer particles, so they bleed, no matter what. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
