Macaw Blue Green - Eye Candy Pigments

Product detailed description

Macaw Blue Green by Eye Candy Pigments is a pearlescent mica powder designed for plastisol and soft bait production. In finished baits it delivers a blue-green “teal” shimmer with depth and a natural, lively look – perfect for baitfish-style backs and sides.

Most important rule: add the pigment to hot clear plastisol (not cold). It shines best in clear or lightly tinted mixes, where you keep transparency while gaining depth and shimmer.

Recommended workflow for soft bait making:

1. Heat plastisol until it turns clear (keep it in the working “hot window”).
2. Sprinkle a small amount of Macaw Blue Green into hot clear plastisol and mix thoroughly.
3. Fine-tune the intensity in small steps – with pearls, it’s better to add twice than to overshoot once.
4. Pour into the mold; for a more natural result, try layering (belly / back).

Pro tips: For a natural teal baitfish vibe, use it mainly on the back and sides and keep the belly lighter. For more pop, a thin layer over a milky/white base works great; for a darker, deeper look, it performs well over smoke/black-tinted mixes.

Technical snapshot: a fine mica powder that adds pearlescent shimmer and depth. Used correctly, it doesn’t change plastisol consistency and is excellent for layering.
