    Default Hope someone can help me...


    I'm want to make a bright yellow that's solid and stands out...for some reason I can't come up with the right combination. My yellow is solid but not real bright or at least as bright as I want...any ideas or suggestions greatly appreciated...

    You might add a drop or two of flourescent yellow or a high liter. Just my guess.

    No matter what I do with yellow I'm never satisfied. It's always dull. I've only used X2 though.

    I'm no master but I always add some white then the yellow to get it to stand out. Lots of the time I take a paper plate or or a small zip lock bag and then add 2-4 drops of white then start adding my yellow or any other color I'm working on mix it up good with tooth pick or pop sickle stick. To me it's a lot cheaper to waste a little color than it is to make a batch of plastic and each time trying to find the right color. There are lots of great plastic bait makers here for sure they all have great ideas and knowledge
