BCBaits Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Common, let them cook out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickcalderone Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Careful not to cook them too long though, or they will scorch. The colors may also be dull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Messing around with re-melts is a pain in the butt. Basically all you will learn is that working with new product is much easier and a whole lot better. www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassman843 Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 I remelt my used baits when I make a new batch plastic of the same color I cut the used baits up seem to melt better that way and keep throwing them in the melting pot as I pour works pretty good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gcl58 Posted December 23, 2007 Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 old blender/sharpen blades. put old plastic in with new and blend (Liquefy) you will have an oatmeal type plastic. the old and the new will melt evenly. remember as you use older go with darker colors the scortching will not show up.
