Color Bleeding

[jarhead]

I have not poured plastics in several years but may start back making my own.  One reason I quit was when I used M-F Plastisol and M-F colors I had a terrible color bleeding problem.  Are the newer colors and plastisol as prone to this issue?  Color combo's such as purple/white and others would bleed badly.

The CCM store has noted which colors bleed and those that don't. I think all plastisol tends to put off a little oil. I have not experienced any bleeding with CCM colors that stated non bleeding.

As kipbass said, it's stated which CCM colors bleed on the CCM site. If you do buy, I strongly recommend the X2 colors. They are great! I started out with the regular versions, and now 98% of the colors I use are X2 versions.

I am slowly converting over to CCM X2 colorant.  This stuff is out of this world.  I ordered and received the Midnight Blue and CCM Green yesterday.  I highly recommend both colors, especially the CCM Green.

CCM Green is awesome.  I love that color. Jason has really made some great products.  His plast is the best you can get.  If you are going to start back again, use CCM and Do-it to get the job done right.

To All,

I appreciate the help with this.  I was glad to hear that there have been advances made to the colorants and the plastic as well.  Looks like I am going back to making my own lures again.  I normally buy several hundred dollars worth of bass and crappie plastic lures each year.  Problem is that most do not come in the colors I need or if I can find the color it is not the body shape I want.  Once again, thanks for the info.

All of CCM's non-bleed colors are fantastic, and it's great that it's noted on the ones that bleed.  If you find a color from a company that you might want, just ask here on the forum if it bleeds or not.  I'm sure someone will know!
