    Looking for a specific silicone jig color.

    Hi. I'm trying to make this Stanley jig color. The black with chartreuse tips is easy to find but I can't find the black with green tips. Anyone know where I can get them? Thanks!

    I've looked everywhere I get skirts and can't find black/green tips. Have you tried dipping the black/chart tip in green Spike It? Junebug, Lime or Watermelon?

    Good idea. No, I've never tried that. Does the dye stay on or does it tend to bleed off over time? Thanks for the input.

    I've never tried it on skirts, only on soft plastics. I don't have any green but I can try and dip some skirts in chartreuse or red and put it in a cup of water to see how it holds up.

    Try skirts plus Eric can pretty much make the colors your looking for you have to buy 1000 skirts but it much easier to do that for both colors.
    They've made a lot of colors for me over the years. As far as matching colors they've got it down at some great prices.
