Mattys19 Posted November 23, 2019 Report Share Posted November 23, 2019 Hello everyone, My son and I just started pouring and have made a few dozen senkos and curly tail worms. He does the color making. 1 color we are trying to make is Daiquiri. I believe it is an old Zoom color but I think Yamamoto made it too. We have tried a few times, but we can't seem to get it right. The color is extremely hard to find in our area but works really well. Anyone have any experience with this color? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark poulson Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 I would guess that the slight color you are seeing is from the glitter used, not a colorant. I would experiment with different fine glitters like green or blue, along with the fine silver and coarse black, to see if you can get that color. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 Judging from what I see, I think Mark nailed it, but there also might be a bit of green hi-lite in there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Linnell Posted November 25, 2019 Report Share Posted November 25, 2019 (edited) I have some Yammy daiquiri and I think I made one feeble attempt at copying the color, epic failure. I think it has some color, maybe from pearls Edited November 25, 2019 by Roger Linnell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jigmeister Posted November 25, 2019 Report Share Posted November 25, 2019 Green hi- lite powder , Fine gold hologram glitter , Medium black glitter . If you're pouring baits loaded with salt (like Yamamoto ) this will lighten the finished color but if not maybe a touch of white pearl hi- lite powder or a drop or 2 white liquid color should do the trick . I have wasted a lot of plastic trying to match colors before I started testing mixing up color variations using clear cooking oil . You can get the desired color very close using the oil then fine tune the recipe using plastisol . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Young Posted November 26, 2019 Report Share Posted November 26, 2019 I was going to say it looked like it had a lot of salt to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Lake Lures Posted November 26, 2019 Report Share Posted November 26, 2019 I would guess just a small amount, fraction of a drop, of LC Watermelon with salt and flake as needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les Young Posted November 28, 2019 Report Share Posted November 28, 2019 I know when i was trying to get a kietech style color look on a swimbait I put a tablespoon of koesher salt to 3 ounces plastc with just a skewer tip of blue to get it. Without the salt it wasn't happening with the colorant i had. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
