Blue and green should be listed as Dormants. I had seen them but thought they just had a metalic added in. I ended up purchasing 5lbs elswhere when you had it here cheaper. At least now I know and will get it here next time. I will be buying the red soon from you though. Thanks for the reply.

Any follow up on this? I'd like to get some matte silver metallic, like on OEM rims. I know you could spray a matte clear over the silver metallic, I just don't want too high of a build up rounding any nice edges.

Have you looked at our page of powder coatings? There's several there that could satisfy this requirement. Aluminum Epoxy, Nickel Frost and Artic Ice are all non-glossy silver metallics.

I'd get all three while they're still half price and give them a try.

I just ordered those and about 15 others to give them a try. Now the hard part, waiting.....

MasterBaiter is an unknown quantity at this point

I'm pushing people in the fishing lure business to purchase their powder from Caswell.
But we use Yellow Chartruese and Green Chartruese and Watermelon colors quite a bit.Caswell has just about every other color used.
I have mixed my own yellow chatruese from 2 of the Caswell colors but its time consuming and not quite as good as the real thing.
Maybe if there is more of a call?
