Bloody Ink

[jingles]

does anyone have a way of cleaning ink stains off your jigs???????

I have a boil coloured yozuri and at the moment it's looking like I wiped my bum with it.. <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/crying.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':th' />

and the fact that the squid have chewed the hell out of it , it's looking a bit average.

any suggestions would be helpful.

cheers and tears

Alkaline solutions will make the ink stains dissappear but will bleach the jig if it's left too long in ,try a weak soak in 'Napisan' oxy action or similar,and watch the jig go clean,but remember to thoroughly wash them after to get rid of the smell.

just gave the jig a wash in di-san and warm water but didn't wash it for too long for fear of bleaching and rinsed off well.

brought it up a bit but will get a better idea of how well it worked when it's dry.

thanks for the tip mate <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/xyxthumbs.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':th' />
