Ah that's good to hear, hear that ? That's silence of the post. LOL

Colorant will for sure add bubbles they are correct again, try without or another color, I also see glitter, and polyester molds bubble while aluminum didn't within same 5 minutes. I have seen scent do it too. Who's color? jeff@mf

Ok Mr. Winco I understand new owners new rules there's no need to run out of popcorn I'll send you some after I go to kroger the local grocery store where I purchase from the many brands on the shelf and surprise you. Thank You for the time to explain, I can almost take my bandaid off from my whooping yesterday. Have a great day, sighing out till next time we have an issue. Your welcome Mr. Al to delete this post now I understand your rules as seen above. jeff@mf

Looks like bear advertises as it just flew by my screen, few days ago it said he didn't confused.

How and what's the phone number for this (1) SPAMMING to be received for giving free anything? I did nothing to spam anyone, I did this same thing many years ago before 1/2 of your young fellow TU members were even here or possible born yet. Most customers that started with Robert, my boss are dead! I have read more about the word toxic, smell and endless bashing of companies and receive calls about it to reverse spam TU but leave it alone except a few times with Bait Junky nagging on endless arguments that advertises randomly as well as lure craft and polysol asking how can I make it better for you, is this Ok or tell me how to make my plastic, can you buy 5 lbs then I can supply it? Please Please..............so on. This was to give your fellow TU forum followers to comment either way good or bad and I'll take it and leave it that, it easily could've been done by a hidden name such as gonetolong or weepingwussty... I would like you to explain how and why X brand can y brand can z brand can but not M-F brand in a post, like giving free baits for a tournament is how my eyes see it. I've seen Bears Baits get hammered deleted, added back and deleted again. Either brand xyz didn't like it but did not contact me even after I said it's OK to delete but I kinda expected to get a message or point to the correct spot to add this free material or free finished worms. I have asked prices to advertise without response. Anyway the lucky 7 got through before it was deleted by Mr. AL That's all just standing up for myself and my real name! edit the word by, prob. missed a few more 1 Spamming Warning issued by Curt - RI 18 hours ago Penalty Given 1 points which will never expire. Note for member Please refrain from promoting your products in the TU forums. We have advertising space available if you'd like to sign up for it. Rates are very reasonable.

This looks pretty close

It also depends on how large the bait is I think a large swim for example M-F will float somewhat of a hook, may not be what you want or if it has lead for sure won't float. I will do a check tomorrow on a chunk of plastic and see. Now for sinking we have a new material that sinks like crazy, takes heat really well and does not exude very durable with very high pull tear strength while still soft to the touch, pretty amazing like Dave said what one can achieve when a goal is set. Almost the stretch material but pourable. Next is to stop the floating to be wet after stored just around the corner jeff@mf

I can tell you that mixing plastics may be OK creating new formulas so to speak but a long time customer was adding other brand stabilizers (mixing stabilizers) and glitter melted after 1 month in poured cured baits. He stopped and the problem went away, so mixing plastisols could have short or long time effects and not noticeable for the regular in house bait maker.

Makes sense since acetone is used around here for cleaning plastisols, colors and rtv masters, wipe it off and then dries right after. Another way to clean dirty molds like rtv is to pour hot plastic over it and pull off, brings all the dirt along with it.

I have mek and acetone both very flammable mek being worse I believe and can get samples of pretty much anything for testing, it's not been a priority for me since I do not sell finished baits for a living. We have been able to formulate a dry plastisol that most dry sinks this will also help adhering and testing vinyl glue, color and ? to achieve it to be thinned out enough not to clog your sprayers. Holidays are here so I can work on more after new year, first is to find a cheap brush on version and go from there. I have no intention to supplying only to help find cheaper sources. There won't be any major suppliers chiming in for you because of the success of the material and painting skills, your on the right track it seems. Edit from above I was on phone at same time and just now re-read the post.. Up above should of said vinyl floor adhesive, not sure it comes in clear or what I never laid vinyl floor. I have done formica in my back yard many years ago and can't recall what color it was probably brownish. Hardwood floor glue is what got me thinking of this.

I'm not 100% sure but I heard through the grapevine to use vinyl paint adhesive and add either the powder color to it or concentrate dyes directly to it. I believe this has been a trade secret for many years and would like to know more about this myself. This has been something I want to try for a while but kinda dropped off my list of to do's while overcoming chronic foot issues. Now that i'm up and going 75% + improvement from 3 years this crap all i can think of fishing and hunting, well that and business and the wife..of subject

Thank You, I need this ASAP and do not own one and I have never talked to him. Thanks again

FATFLATTIE, I don't see any contact info how are they on turn around on this mold?jeff@mf

Anyone interested liquid floating additive? Pints only... Thanks Jeff@mf

I Still have the can marked liquid micro bubbles I never tried, I think it was back when our building caved in and didn't get to it. I think I will add xx gallons of liquid in a 5 gallon bucket and top it off with floating additive, in my head it will be approx like pouring our hardener not the paste hardener. More like honey at the worst thickness and hardener at the best. Not sure what to really price it at except material and time. Anyone really need this done? I'm not guaranteeing other than I can make it happen the rest will be trial and error... jeff@mf

Yo Al, we can keep 5.0 for the guys who want it no problem. Some with the oily issue after 8 month-2 year storage of finished baits in bags in a hot area with some folks but not all, most have figured it out or don't store it over years bagged and like most keep it a secrete. We cutting out that problem here pretty soon with an additive but it will take a few weeks to months. Were positive it will be prompt. All bags are not all made the same and clear bags seem the worst at the moment, actually I think they are cheapened up more now that the production went up from the demand, we're gonna try johnson bag company again. I have a new plastisol that seem to stay dry and hasn't oiled or exuded in a bag but does NOT like the microwave at all and it's a great sinking plastisol, I love it it takes a bit longer to heat but it sets up nicely and firms up very quick out of the mold. Again does not like my mic and have sent some out for the pot users. I will offer up some free samples pretty soon for feedback. For now supplying you 5.0 is not a problem. PM me your name so I can see your account no need to change.. jeff@mf

I don't see that gonna happen anytime soon.

Oddly enough this is pretty close on the red side depends on the light and how much color to add.

Sorry to hear that, it may have something to do with certain heating microwave methods, cheap bags and adding either spike it or lurecraft scents or colors, something is not jiving. Trust me I have been testing poured baits for 5 years, I have had baits in every Texas climate with 8-24 months being a long test. I have seen many brands turn foggy, exude, turn like cracked ice looking, turn mushy and yellow. EDIT HERE some mics are tough on plastisols (ours) being inclosed for 24 months is a long time to not use or sale baits. As far as getting harder over years I do say after a week I see it firm up but not seen that after 2 years. Then another thought is being phthalate-free while others are not then new code or laws may have made stabilization an issue. Not sure. I do take phone calls as said above, jeff@mf

Well, we are manufacturers not sure how major but Bear and I actually text (once or more than once) and he was up to his rear in water so were his computers and everything below a certain level. Hopefully he will be up soon because I have never seen a money tree this side of Canada. Never been to canada..... computers shipping department including boxes, tape and paper....on and on ups everything machines rust wood bugs the list goes on when something bad happens he will be good on your money i'm sure in time

http://pouryourownworms.com/31-Rootbeer-31.htm http://pouryourownworms.com/34-Pumpkin-non-bleed-34.htm Here's a close color

Glitter - Need Advice Just an observation of pics allowed and picks not. There are pics of baits there and I personally like to see the actual baits and makers you are making in the same spot. I have never gone to the picture gallery. Most are to match colors, maybe location of hook, beads, glitter colors and any other components. . Only my thoughts reading a bit back from vacation.

Thats a great opinion, now I have to ask if customers are having issues with colors if you are mic-ing them. Thanks for the heads up. Jeff@MF
