    Default Injecting glow paint into larva lace


    I just had a thought and want some input before I try this.

    Take a transparent or translucent larva lace and inject a high quality glow paint. I have glow in the dark larva lace but it isn't as bright as I really want and doesn't glow as long as I would like.

    I had thought about using the powder but I can't imagine trying to get it into such a small tube.

    Any thoughts??

    Skiptomylu, your glow post inspired this. I also thought of using the same technique you use over top of larva lace type material.

    Why not just make glow jigs like I do? I gave the recipe on here.

    See picture below and also realize I have to waite a little after I charge them up before I can take a good picture of them because they are too bright, lol!

    Link to the how to post and if needed you can email me and I will send you the better pictures.

    For this I just put my hand under the shadow of my desk without turning the overhead lights off.

    I have a condition that makes my body shake and makes using stuff like you use difficult. Just looking for something that I can tie and not get frustrated.

    Understand, but when I was looking and admit have not in a long time, but I never found anything I liked until I did what I did.

    If I run into something I will let you know.

    Well I may just have to figure out how to make it work for me.

    Might be able to use a jig turner I made a few years ago.

    Holy crappie that glow stuff is on the steep $$ side but if you want quality glow it is the best I've seen.

    How far does 1 ounce go skip?

    You know that is some bad stuff I mess with, but you can handle it pretty safe and really don't need to do any mixing very often at all. One you have some mixed and in a glass container it's easy to use and like I said use a little wooden skewer stick to put it on your jigs with. I do understand why most don't want to mess with it or maybe a little scared of the mixing, but it's not all that hard to do.
