BAssKickin Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 Try this: may need a drop or two of Watermelon when you are done to darken. 6 Oz. Plastic, 6 drops LC flourescent yellow, 7 drops LC motor oil (yes, you would think motor oil would be amber color but LC's is green) with approx. 1/8 tsp small gold flake. Will get you close; I have a similiar color. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
