    I have come up with an idea for making a coffee scent that I'm gonna try here in the next day or so.I have also done some tinkering with making a garlic paste that I can smear on my jigs and should last a long time or at least a few cast before it comes off. The paste I'm making is pretty easy but I need to tweak it a little but the garlic scent is super potent, I don't worry about vampires in my house.

    Edl this isn't for everyone, I make my own plastics and I like to experiment with different things, that's what I do. I have store bought scents that smell exactly like what I made. I don't mind experimenting with different scents, I will be trying out coffee and a few others pretty soon.

    I just did a bunch of research on this and I actually made some garlic scent that is super strong. I got an old jelly jar and filled it with vegetable oil,then I got some garlic cloves and cut them up. I did bake the cloves at 250 degrees for about 10 minutes cause raw garlic and certain elements can produce botchulism(sp). After letting it sit in a jar for 2 weeks I got a oil that is super potent with a garlic smell, I can add it to my plastic before pouring or put some in a spray bottle and spray it on my lure at the lake.I will be trying a few other scents,craw,coffee and Anise.

    You gotta seal a POP mold,I either use Devcon 2Ton epoxy or Elmers glue mixed with some water.

    Yeah you can get them from Bears or Lurecraft. There are a few sites with classified adds where people sell stuff they don't use or are getting out of the business, you can find molds,glitter,hi lites.

    Hi lites are a powder additive that give the plastic a pearl like sheen to it, I add hi lutes to almost every thing I pour. I'm addicted to hi lites. They are great to add to a certain color to give it a different sort of appearance.

    Just thought you should know, I know there are a few brands of worms you don't want to remelt,if I'm not mistaken Berkley is one of them, I don't know what it is about them but they smell horrible when you melt them. I know there are a few others but can't remember the brand,hopefully someone will chime in that knows. Good luck on your new addictive hobby.

    That sounds like a great idea Salt. I would be able to make some of the colors and post pictures, I can't make too many cause I just got laid off so now my plastic has to last a little longer until I find a new job. I could downsize the recipe just for picture purposes, if a recipe calls for 4 ounces and 20 drops I can 2 ounces and 10 drops and so on. I also like the idea of only mods or higher ups can add them, let's get this book rolling.

    I just sent you a copy Salt, hopefully it works I'm not the smartest when it comes to computer stuff.

    Yeah I throw my fresh pours in water,just make sure you keep your water container away from your pouring area.Like Crabbybass said it is very dangerous if hot plastic and water meet. I pour on a work table and keep a bucket of cold water on the floor. good luck.

    I'm guessing the scales and and stuff are air brushed on with a special paint for plastics and then the bait is dipped in clear plastic. I could be wrong cause I'm no pro at this stuff.

    +1 I have two presto pots and they are great. Every now and then I gotta use a cup for a tripple pour but the Presto pots are the way to go.
  14. finesse1331
    It is hard to determine how the bait will actually look from there pictures, I actually just got that same mold # 869 and it is a nice little mold. Maybe we can ban together and get Lurecraft to print some better pictures.

    I don't know what kind of hardener your using but if its's actual plastic hardener be sure to add it to cold plastic.

    Hey guys I appreciate the info. I actually have some tubes of acrylic paint that I will try later tonight. Much appreciated.
  21. finesse1331
    Has anyone made any molds using 100% silicone and water as a catalyst ? I tried making a few and they all come out fine except the inside of the mold has alot of bubbles and when I pour it the worm comes out looking like a sponge. Any help is greatly appreciated.
  22. finesse1331
    I was just wondering what are the steps to take if I wanted to sell my own plastics that I pour ? Do I need to get some kind of business license ? I was thinking of making a Facebook page and maybe selling some of my plastics but wasn't sure if I would get busted.Any help is appreciated. Robert ><(((*>
