    Default Glow Powder


    I've decided to experiment with glow powder. Discovered the suff is extremely heavy and doesn't mix well with plastic. However the baits turned out with a wonderful glow!

    Here's a few questions:

    1) How much do you use per cup? Read a few other threads and the only thing I could find was 1 tsp per cup, seem like a lot.

    2) Which colors do you like to add the powder to? Notice it does change the color of the bait, however if the end result is to glow, does it really matter the color?

    Thanks,

    Brad

    mix sounds right, just keep it stirred. some colors will hurt the amount of glow you get but if you put in a couple of drops of white you get a better glow. like when doing jig heads white first then glow and it glows brighter

    I have always had trouble with glow powder, does not matter how much I stir I still have trouble, and yes it does change the color.

    if you do use glow powder in your plastics do not add any color it will only dim the glowing I use straight glow-in-the-dark powder I do not add anything like color to it if you do hold it up to a light after you make a few and you will see the difference.
