bradley4bengals Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 How much plastic can you microwave at a time. I made a huge musky swimbait pop mold for a friend and it will take alot of plastic. I have a 32 oz pyrex cup if you can microwave that much. And does anyone know a good way to guess how much plastic it will take to fill a mold that you have never used before? Thanks for any help.

bryanmc Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Fill it with water... volume is volume. You should get close. As far as how much. I think you're only limited by the size of the microwave and your pyrex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 The problem with large amounts of plastic in a micro, is the fact that a micro heats from the inside out. It can be done, but you have to do it in bursts and you will have to stir it each time; or else you will burn the plastic. www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
