Thread: Here are some slab getters I made today

CTom

I sent Jerry a PM, see what happens.

I also have the.015 black, haven't tried it with yellow,
may give it a shot to see what results I get.

Jerry feels there maybe a temp issue, as I stay within the limits using my digital temp.

made a small 3oz batch batch of straight essential temped at 325-330 stirred in few drops of X2 yellow, maintained around 330* soon as a sprinkle of the Black Hex was added it instantly was turning green.
left it bleed a bit, started to add more X2 yellow, which made it start to Yellow, just clouded loosing the black Hex, also loosing it's clarity.

Have you tried maintaining a yellow color with any dark glitter colors without having them bleed ?

Starting to become an obsession for me, as I remember having a Beetle Spin that was a vibrant Yellow with Black Glitter which worked on those finicky Biters.

I suggest that you send the glitter back to Jerry. work either send some to ctom were made to see what is going on when I would imagine Jerry could answer your question better if he had a sample of that glitter.

Nice baits!

I couldn’t help but notice the Olive Drab Color on the second bait, as when I try using .040 blk Hex from Do-It with yellow it turns that color Grn.
Been trying to retain the yellow color with black Hex, but No matter how I apply the Blk. it just seems to turn Olive Drab Color

Open to suggestions

I've never tried Do-It's glitter but try Spike-It's glitter. All I use now.

Have you tried using Spike-It's .040 Black Glitter in with Yellowed Essential without having any Bleeding, or having it turn Green?

billygee :rolleyes:

No I haven't tried their black glitter with yellow but will tomorrow. I'll post back tomorrow. Any certain yellow combo you want me to try or you just want me to chose?

Basically just the large Blk Glitter, I was using essential then a couple drops of X2 yellow got it to around 320 - 330* soon as I started sprinkling in the glitter you could see the Bleed.

by the way thanks ahead of time for giving this a try, it will certainly will clear up some other pending questions I have.
