  1. Had a friend show me a War Eagle spinnerbait the other day. He says the blades do not chip. I have never seen blades that look like that, they must have some type of coating on them. Does anyone know where to buy some or will I have to try coating the ones I get from Barlows and Janns? Thanks in advance, Tim D.
  2. Calhoun Hardener (1)? I had a friend order some for me and need to ask if this stuff is to be mixed into the liquid plastic before you start heating it? thin it into it so to speak? It turns into hard brown lumps when I have tried to use it the last couple time. Color question (#2) If the color does not say non bleeding am I to assume that it will bleed if it touch another color plastic? I'm just a newbie! Thanks in advance! TimD.
  3. Someone posted a long time ago about using GE type silicone. They said something like having to mix it 50/50 with I think water to get it to work. Anyone ever try this? Thanks in advance. TimD.
  4. Thanks, I went searching and found what you just told me about and came back here to tell what I found. TimD.
  5. I need to know how to use Calhoun Hardener? Need to make some swim baits a little stiffer. Should you melt the hardener first and then add fresh plastic? Melt the hardener and plastic together? I tried the second and the hardener just stayed in a thick lump. Thanks in advance. TimD.
  6. I would like to make some swim baits in a pearl blue silver glitter like Yamamoto's color # 031, pearl blue lg silver flake. I'm coming up with bad colors and wasting a lot of plastic. Please,anyone have any ideas? I have tried pearl blue powder, Calf. blue and white liquid from lure craft. Thanks, TimD.
  7. Mike, I see it now! Thanks.......
  8. Mike, I do not see a pearl blue on the lure craft site. Can you send me a link?
  9. I'm new to this plastic making and need some help..... What colors would I need to make a pearl blue color? I think I would need a white pearl powder and some blue color but not sure. Thanks in advance. TimD
  10. Got board over this past winter and decided to rebuild one of my oldest reels. I also decided to give it a fresh coat of paint. Actually it's had several but still not satisfied. I picked up some Createx the other day and I will have at it again over the next couple days. I want to try to match the color of a new St Croix Legend Tournament Bass rod that is on it's way. My question is what should I use for a top coat? I saw one post that talked about Dick Nite top coat. I don't have that and was wondering what could be used that I could get locally with out ordering? Thanks! Tim
