I pre-make the heads hundreds at a time. I need to do it this way to meet production needs and to allow for easy custom color manufacturing

Thanks fellas Is there some type of solvent spray that will remove the oils from the surface instead of wiping each head? I'm going to try to scuff the heads by using an angle grinder with the appropriate wheel. Perhaps the hot plastic will be able to fuse with the miniscule tears and cuts. I'm playing with cyanoacrylite glues as well as solvents that might attack the surface layer of the cured plastisol, softening it and possibly making it more apt to fuse with the fresh hot plastisol.

Was hoping maybe a fresh set of eyes might see this. Any other ideas or info is appreciated. Thank you Marc

Hi, Having difficulty getting outer (colored) layer of plastisol to bond to the head when making large tubes. The heads are pre-made (clear) and often sit around for days/weeks prior to being put back on the rod for a final few coats of whichever color scheme I'm making. Problem is I don't get a solid bond....can essentially peel off the outer layer after it cools, leaving the head virtually unaffected in its original state. Is there some sort of spray on primer I can apply to the heads shortly before I apply the colored layers that will create a solid bond between clear head and colored outer layers? Thank you Marc
