Maybe check out the color cookbook found in the plastics section just below the General forum here. Right at the top of the color cookbook section is a recipe page that contains tons of recipes others have requested.

It's in a PDF format and not sure how to add it to a post. I'll play with it and if I'm too dumb I can forward it to someone smarter.  :)

?This is only part of it.
Color Cookbook





Berkley Camo
1 cup plastic
4 drops of moss green
3 drops of watermelon
2 drops oxblood
now the key I found to give it the brownish effect was the brown Fleck and the gold fleck added into it. I only had .035 and it should be fine fleck


Berzerk Berry
8 oz Plastic
6 drops White Pearlescent
5 drops Black Grape
4 drops Purple
2 Drops Red
Add the pearl before heating...Mix Colors in thoroughly.
I like green and blue flake in this one...The color looks crazy in the water, it works well when the sun is up.


Basic Green Pumpkin
4 ounces of plastic
6 drops watermelon
6 drops pumpkinseed
desired amount of medium black flake


Bluegill
Plastic : 1-2 ounces of plastic
Mix : black color-add 1 drop of color to plastic until you get a light to medium shade of smoke.
.035 black glitter
.035 gold glitter
.035 blue glitter
put the same amount of black and blue glitter in the plastic.
put only a very light amount of gold glitter in the plastic.


Bubblegum
6 oz plastic
5 drops red
10 white,
Turn this into cotton candy by adding red and blue glitter



Bluegill
1) Blue/Pearl Laminate.
More commonly used colors are:
(2) Pumpkin and or Green Pumpkin.
(3) Solid Black.
(4) Blue.
(5) Black and Blue Combinations.


BLUEGILL
4 ounces Plastic
1 Drop Black (smoke)
Just a touch (or desired amount) of the following glitter: small blue, medium black and gold, large green. Use less large green than the other flakes.
Another version:
Same as above, but drop the blue flake and pour a light blue vein instead.


Bubblegum
Plastic : 1/2 cup @ 4 oz.
5-6 drops Florescent Pink
2 drops white
Notes : The florescent pink must be added before you heat the plastic.


Junebug
Plastic : 1 ounce
add purple color until you reach a medium to medium heavy shade.
add green glitter( enough to your able to see the green shade).


Bullfrog
1 cup plastisol
20 drops yellow
2 drops black
fine green glitter 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon
large black glitter 1/4 teaspoon
fine black glitter 1/4 teaspoon


Cotton Candy
Plastic : 4 ozs.
1 drop pumpkin
1 drop red,
green, red, black, & blue glitter.


Culprit Red Shad
1) black color (with or without red flake) with some red Hi-lite powder mixed in...this is the dark back
2) strawberry, again with the red HL powder mixed in, usually some red flake...the red belly
***I frequently adjust the red belly color by adding some drops of black, blue or purple to darken it a bit. Sorry, but this is strictly a "to taste" recipe.


Frog Formula
4 oz Plastic
8 drops lc kudzu green
add 1/4 teaspoon of medium black flake. This is the top of the frog 4 oz Plastic
1/4 teaspoonful white pearl powder. This is the bottom layer of the frog.


Ghost Hologram
1/2 cup plastic
1/8 tsp Large black Flk.
1/8 tsp Small Silver Hologram Flk.


Golden Punkin' Seed
8 oz plastic
5 drops pumpkin seed
10 drops flo yellow
Add 1/4 tsp med. black flake
dont forget 1/8 tsp pearl white
Alt recipie instead of using flo yello use chartreuce, then substutie the pearl white with green hi lite's


Gourd Green
Root Beer or Amber Brown with medium and large green flake will both make nice Gourd Green colors. Pumpkin works too.


Gourd Green
get real close to Zoom's gourd green using LC pumpkin and medium green flake.
I don't remember an exact formula for it, but use it sparingly and you'll get there, I am thinking around 3-4 drops per 8 OZ. Try adding some small black flake too, really cool effect.


Green Weenies
Mine is amber brown on top and lime green on the bottom (black & red flake). Another popular one is straight brown over avocado. Makes a darker version
4 oz plastic
3 drops watermelon
2 drops Moss Green
black flake to taste
PART 2
4 oz plastic
3 drops straight Brown
1 drop Jet Black transparent
2 drops pumpkinseed.
NO FLAKE!
You can stick with 6 drops of brown if you have to but the formula above makes a far nicer chocolate


Ice Blue
1 cup plastic
2 drops blue
1/2 tsp pearl white powder
1/2 tsp Large Blue Flake
1/2 tsp Small Silver Holo Flake


June Bug
1 1/2 cups plastic
40 drops of black grape
55-60 drops of red


June Bug
Plastic : per ounce of plastic
add three drops of indigo (black grape).
when plastic is hot stir in green glitter until you get the desired effect.

2 drops green


Motor Oil

2 drops black

Motor Oil
4 oz Plastic

5 yellow

Add your choice of flake. If you want it just a tad darker, try adding 2 drops of purple.


Motoroil
1/2 Cup Plastisol
10 drops Chartruse (must be mixed with plastisol before heating)
10 drops Motoroil
If you cut the colorant to 7-8 drops each, the color comes out more on the watermelon side. Add a little fine red flake to this produces a very nice color.


Motor oil pepper
1/2 cup plastic
2 drops yellow
1 drop pumpkinseed
1/4 tsp Large Black Flk.
1/16 tsp Small Gold Flk.

Old Bear. Felt bad for him after he took the hit from the hurricane. He had some interesting colorants and some of his molds were top shelf for the day. I still have some of his colorants. I had just one of his molds, a 1" shad bait. Productive little bait. I borrowed the mold out to a friend and he dropped it. The hinge bent and a big divot was on one mating edge and I could never get the thing to mate up again without some serious flashing.

I’m not computer savvy at all. I can email the list to you in a PDF format and you can print it out. I would love to share the file on here but I don’t know how.  ::)

I found this link on anglers workshop.
http://www.anglersworkshop.com/Soft-Plastic-Bait-RecipesANG

Hope it works.
Looks like the same list as basscatlildave's.
Colorants used are apparently Lure Craft.
