robbor Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 Where do you guys buy MF plastic from, hopefully cheaper than direct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubeman Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 Robbor, I don't think its cheaper anywhere else. I think Barlow's sells it in smaller quantites. I tested some last week and it is as good as everyone on the boards has said. Not much smell and very clear on initial pours, pot times (the lenght of time the plastisol stays clear while heated) are relevant to the amount of extra heat stabilizer you add. Calhoun, while slightly cloudy in colour will stay clear as long with the proper additives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pastorshane Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 Zeiners bass shop sells it for 39.99 a gallon and carry all 3 kinds. They ship fast to where I live. But I may have to order in 5 gallon soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Prager Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 You can get 5 gallons for $100 from M-F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pastorshane Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 Yep, thats what I plan on doing! Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Prager Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 If you do get the 5 gallon container from M_F, a good idea is to get the spigot that screws in. It can be used over and over again. It's about $3.00. Also if you need color or flake, order it with the plastic. They will toss it in the same box so you can avoid extra shipping charges. They will also send highlight powder samples along. Sometimes they send it automatically, sometimes they don't. But you can send a little note along when you order to make sure.

wrm-n Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 Save the 5 gallon bucket (the ones that stack) till you get 12 then start buying 55 gal drum. The price drops a bunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
printertom Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 Thats what i'm doing i have 5 containers so far i think by the time i get there i'll be ready to order the 55 drum the price on M-F is worth it the best i think no glubby mess on the bottom and it stay the same 5gal. jug after 5gal. jug. thomas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbor Posted December 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 Any idea how much of a discount the give if you have a business lic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 Any idea how much of a discount the give if you have a business lic? Things may have changed, but it didn't matter when I purchased from them (or any other plastic manufacturer). What gets the discount is large purchases......with or without the license.
