MassBass Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 How do I get reflective color in the plastics? Do they make metalic colors? I like the quality of the basstrix plastics and am going for the same type of effect for shad, sand eel, and herring baits I'm making.

JD Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 Hi-lite powders added in small quantities prior to heating the plastic should give you the effect you are looking for. JD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madbass Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 I have made some really cool baits by not adding any color but just using glitter. Find the color or colors that you want and just put more of it in than you would with colored plastic. I've got a couple of cutomers who order custom soft plastic stickbaits with only glitter.

nova Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 I used to make a fluke with silver and fine holi on the back with a red and holi belly. Worked quite well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
