baitntackle Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 I have a tuff time cleaning my lurecraft pouring pots. Whats the best way to clean them after each use? The left over plastic is so stuck, I scrape it lose with my finger nails. Got to be a easier way! Thanks in advance Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassn1 Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 I use a wire brush that ataches to my cordless drill. After it's clean I spray it down with PAM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrm-n Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 I have 18 pots... one pot for black glitter, red, green and so on. When I am done pouring a color I dump the rest of the plastic out and wipe inside with a paper towel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDC Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 You may be getting your plastic too hot. I have no trouble peeling out the cooled plastic and wiping any glitter out with a paper towel or my fingers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 Try spraying your pots with WD-40, then wipe out the excess with a paper towel, this makes them easy to clean and also keeps your pots from getting any rust started when you do not pour for a while. Hope this helps, Maverick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfman148 Posted December 23, 2007 Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 I do the same a Bassn1. I have a small wire brush on the cordless drill and that does a good job inside and out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodkaman Posted December 23, 2007 Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 Wear protective glasses. Those wire wheels throw off wire shards. It WILL get you in the eye, it's just a matter of when. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rxfish Posted December 23, 2007 Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 I use a drill and wire brush as well and a shop vac. I have the vac in one hand and the drill in the other and suck the stuff up as it comes out, then finish up by sucking the rest out of the bottom of the pot. Works good for cleaning excess off the bench as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
