Glenn Abuelhaj Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 (edited) Hi All, I searched high and low for some direction for this color combination to no avail… I tried mixing variations with Lureworks black, red red, and Deadon Redrum and the results aren’t even close, I’d appreciate if a color pigment/brand can be listed here. Thanks and Good Luck! Glenn Edited January 19 by Glenn Abuelhaj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiderunner Posted January 20 Report Share Posted January 20 Lure Works Clear Red 167 with some black, and a black laminate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Abuelhaj Posted January 20 Author Report Share Posted January 20 Thanks for the info, I'll check that color out. Although the pictures do not show it, there is red flake and less blue flake but there is a transparent red coloration as well. It does look like a black/transparent red "swirl" combination so a dual injector may be needed for this color combination/formation. I'll get some of that color and will try that combination out.... Thanks! Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! Glenn I'm not seeing a "swirl" but just a shading of black. I'm with you on needing a dual injector but without the two plungers connected so you can control the mount of black in the bait. Unless I'm seeing this wrong. It looks like just a bit of black along one side. It doesn't look like you need a deep black. Just enough black colorant to make it transparent so the red still shows through. It's only a picture but it looks like the flake is .015 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Abuelhaj Posted January 21 Author Report Share Posted January 21 Yes, you're right about that black color as well as not being a "swirl". Seems to be a trick or technique involved to have that color black injected and appear that way. May have to trial and error some different methods with the plungers. The flake size does look to be .015. Will give it a go when the colorants arrive. Thanks! Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveMc1 Posted Friday at 07:15 PM Report Share Posted Friday at 07:15 PM Not a swirl at all, it's a 3 colour laminate, the back and belly are the same but there is a dark middle colour pumped in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Abuelhaj Posted Monday at 07:06 PM Author Report Share Posted Monday at 07:06 PM It certainly looks that way! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It almost seems as if that little bit of black on the side was a skin inside the mold, yet it somehow still looks like a laminate. In one pic it looks as though the darker side, not the black, is made by using glitter. It seems as though the non- darker side has very little glitter. Or maybe that darker side is some sort of black pearl mixed in the red. Or maybe just a pin tip amount of black stirred into the red, with lots of glitter? I think there are a few ways you can make this color combo. None of them easy. Maybe easy isn't the word, time consuming seems more like it. If you attempt these , let us know how it works out.

Bass-Boys Posted Tuesday at 03:26 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 03:26 PM From a different picture on Tackle Warehouse it does quite a bit of small blue flake. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their 3 colour laminates aren't that consistent. Just the nature in how Zorn's machines make them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
