AI 4" open pour hook slotted swimbait raw material cost
Bass-Boys replied to Alien Lureworks's topic in Soft Plastics
18 from 1-1/3 cups = 13.5 per cup x 16 cups in a gallon= 216 baits per gallon . That is just for Plastisol, add in color, glitter and eyes if used. -
Enforcer has a nice 4.5" worm . FJBW450 worm mold 4.5" bait.
-
yes that makes sense. Then add in cost of glitter, colorant, and if used- salt, softner and scent .
-
I see Lure Craft has a couple 1.75" . 5 x 981 5 x 662

Glad to here Les.

Is this Gel mixed into the bait , or just on the outside of the bait ?
-
Ohh ,, I just got my 1st - 5 gal . of bait plastics. . Used mostly Calhouns in the past. I mite need this advice ,, Hmmm .
-
How do you spell it ?????? Its too bad Lure Craft prices are way out of line .
-
My thought is ,, Green, Blue, Black, Brown. Any of these colorants but in a small amount. Like smoke with the black and so on . Then with the white glitter.
-
What plastisol are you using ? I have molds that have been used for years and years and no build up ??
-
Or do you mean ,,, melt down used store bought plastic baits?
-
I use worm oil on metal rods. Soak a napkin and wipe it on the rods
-
Try to use a base color like yellow or tan ( not Black ) maybe then a lot of gold pearl and gold hi-lite
-
Lay the mold halves one at a time on a flat surface, cav. side down and see if it rocks back and forth when you push down on each corner ( one corner at a time )of mold half. Also mite have a burr on the mold some where and it is not letting it close all the way .
-
just in the bait cavity area ??
-
Price of plastisol really doesn't have anything to do with a vac. Its just us giving our opinion on the subject. Its just a debate, If a guy has his mind set on getting a vac that's great , his choice. I do not have one and do not need one but I do deal with bubbles. I also do not make clear baits. If I made clear baits I mite think differently about getting one . Every one has an opinion none are right or wrong.
-
Not sure ?? , but it looks like the only free shipping from MF mite be in gallons of plastisol ??? $ 68.75 per gallon - free shipping . it does not say free shipping on the 5 gallon pail .
-
Dead on is $51.82 ( gallon ) with the shipping to me . MF is FREE shipping
-
There site says lead time is 15-20 days, so you should be getting info soon . Great molds.
