slaphead Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 Time has come to put some more colour back into my shell deeks and I thought pigeon socks/jackets/covers would be the way to go but Ive heard that some go pink over time... I plan to glue these to the shell deeks so a return wont be possible should they go pink so if I avoid the ones that do go pink Ill be onto a winner.. So.......... Which ones DONT discolour and turn pink? Sillosocks? others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 I have always used sillosocks from UKShootwarehouse. For the shells, I fit them over the shell and use double sided carpet tape to secure them underneath (after cutting down the middle). Mine have never turned pink and in fact hold their colour well, most are getting very old now and still look good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to get some carpet tape now.. Great idea and much better than the goopy glue I was going to use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
