Kind of looks like a and Lime with some Gold metal flake in it! I may have to give that a try as far as making my own. I have the metal flake I bought by the pound and plenty candy colors I clouding I think some lime? Have to look at that paint to see if mine is candy lime or not!

Skip, if you don't have the Candy Lime, let me know & I'll send you an ounce or 2. I think you're right about the mix.

Thanks guys......I think RnD on this will be good. I use double dip method with TJ's fluid beds with 2nd dip being Rosey's 200% and total look is super sweet

Well since it was mentioned in this thread, now is as good a time as any to ask what is the difference between estaz and Chennelle?

About all I can speak to is the difference in appearance. Here are 2 jigs, the first tied with #10 Crystal Chenille and the second with Grande Estaz, both in Blue.




Skip may jump in here as I'm sure he has the technical difference's like manufacturing process & material composition. All I know is I LIKE IT!!.

Oh ok. Thanks for the 2 pictures. I've been wondering about that for a couple of weeks now.

Vern one thing to know if that Bkue was the Estaz Opal Blue it would be a lot fuller.

Also do you know or can you tell if the flake in that paint is Silver or Gold? I have plenty, think I have a pound of it and I have a pound of Metal Flake in a bunch of colors including both Silver and Gold and both Holographic. So habe the fixins, just need to know color of flakes. Think either will do well so hard to know without seeing it.

Thanks,
Skip

The Estaz does make a better looking jig, but in the water I have done better with Crystal. I was also using #10 Crystal and Grande Estaz Metallique. Crystal was also lower in price.
