rockylinx Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 pour on mold-remove excess, I usually let the glue/water sit for 5 min. make sure your mold is completely dry before applying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smallie Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 If I see it puddling after I tilt it to pour the excess glue out, I take a Q-tip and blot it to remove the puddles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradley4bengals Posted February 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 Do you submerg (dont know if that is spelled right lol) the whole mold in it? If so how long do I let it stay in and how many times will I need to coat it? Thanks for all the help guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockylinx Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 If i had enough glue/water I WOULD ,it leaves a nice finish and seales everything from moisture. I do mine outside ,any puddling I shake the crap out of it. The key is to let the mixture soak into the mold. Thats why you want a dry mold. It sucks into the pop so whatever is extra is basically unused because it didn't soak in. the second coat is more of a coating because your base is soaked into the pop. you will notice it uses a lot less glue/water. 2 coats is enough 3 coats is max. after 2 coats it doesn't improve your bait at all some will disagree. Ive been using the same mold for 6 months consistently and it only had one coat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
