what brand of mold ?
-
for the best action I use medium and add softener ,, but it makes um tear easier .
-
I use a lot of black .. straight and added to others to darken .
-
I like Kelly Green for most stuff, but Emerald green is used for June Bug. small glitter of .015 and medium/large in .035/.040 is a good start

I hope you get a reply .. that last post was made Feb. 15th of 2017

I hear ya ,, I have to turn the fan to a lower setting, and use by body to block the air from hitting the pour stream .
-
here is a start point .. add 1/4 teaspoon hardener to 1 cup plastisol .. add 6 drops heat stable to 1 cup plastisol
-
I store them open side down just so no dust and other stuff gets in um. After a lot of use I wipe them down with worm oil. Thats all I do .

About to order 5 - 10 gallons of plastic for my first order...
Bass-Boys replied to wiredconcepts's topic in Soft Plastics
I personally buy only Medium and have gallons of softener ( mostly for sticks ) and a qt of hardener. This way I can mix my own how I want it for each type of bait . -
only leave them in water for a few minutes..
-
What type of bag are you using ? regular kitchen zip loc bags or Laminated Bait zip locks ?
-
Make sure you oil the rod on the handle end. Also remove the o-rings and clean out under them and put um back in .
-
depends on who you sell to. if they use a scanner to ring up there items then yes the bag needs a upc.
-
I have never made um.. But I will guess at it . they will be hollow so when stored do not let um get smashed down and close the core hole . I think they would be hard to store ,, do not bend or smash um . If they stay in the correct shape should be able to keep um for a long while . make sure when you fill um that your plastic is hot .
-
when it gets kinda solid flip the mold over on to a table top to cool. The paper Idea worked good .
-
yup, looks good

you will need to build a frame or bracket to hold the hooks.. I use straight pins pushed rite in the mold on each side of the hook - but my molds are silicone. plus my mold holds the line tite on each end then trim and tie the loop after pouring
-
I have poured 100s of them with mono in the mold. Your plastic must be to hot . I used heavy mono it's been a while but I think 20-25 pound. and YES you can use braid in the mold too.
-
I mite? have some molds I would sell. ( Silicone ) they would be 5-6" worms -- put the rig in the mold then hand pour. I will check ..
