Dead On Plastix – non-migrating colours for plastisol

Dead On Plastix non-migrating colours are especially useful when two or more strongly contrasting shades are combined in one soft bait. Typical examples include a light or white belly with a dark back, two-colour laminates, multilayer bodies or separately coloured tails.

With conventional colourants, the colouring component may gradually migrate into adjacent plastisol during prolonged contact. This can result in a change of shade, staining of a light layer or gradual loss of a sharp colour transition. Dead On Plastix NO-BLEED technology is designed to significantly reduce this unwanted colour migration.

The benefit is therefore not limited to the pouring or injection process itself. It is also important during subsequent storage of finished soft baits, especially when different coloured layers remain in direct contact for extended periods.

Dead On Plastix offers natural, contrasting and more vivid shades, including colours developed for UV and neon recipes. Individual shades can be used on their own or combined to create custom colour recipes.

Shake the colour thoroughly before use and add it gradually. We recommend checking the final shade on a small amount of plastisol or on a cooled test sample, as the finished colour can vary depending on the plastisol used, colour concentration, bait thickness and other additives.

What does NO-BLEED or non-migrating colour mean?
It refers to a colourant designed to significantly reduce the transfer of colouring components between adjacent plastisol layers. This is particularly important in laminated and multicolour soft baits.

Are all Dead On Plastix colours fluorescent or UV reactive?
No. Dead On Plastix offers different types of colours. Some are standard or natural shades, while others belong to UV or neon ranges. The specific properties are therefore stated individually for each product.

Can Dead On Plastix colours be mixed together?
Yes. Individual shades can be used separately or combined to create custom colour recipes. We recommend adding colour gradually and always checking the finished shade on a test sample.

Are Dead On Plastix colours suitable for laminated soft baits?
Yes. Laminates and multicolour soft baits are among the applications where reduced colour migration provides the greatest advantage.

Dead On Plastix is a strong choice for lure makers who want to create clean laminates, contrasting colour layers and stable multicolour combinations. Individual shades can be combined with plastisols, glitter and other equipment for custom soft bait production.
