plasticpaul Posted July 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 thanks bear, maybe i hould have read that first. Im really happy with the order i got from you too, thanks. Postage is a killer though.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zook2001 Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 Plastisol is basicly PVC powder mixed with a plastizer, the secret is type and quantity of plastizer but who's going to share that secret. Barnes used to sell it but everone has moved to using brush latex now because of the health concerns.The best option is four quart bottles in a flat rate box,maybe I'll order again if the dollar goes up we can only hope.I've noticed a lot of english lures are made from latex however bakeable latex is even more expensive than plastisol.

plasticpaul Posted July 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 i guess its a case of wait for the dollar to go up and buy offshore, last time i got a gallon and a heap of colours etc and the shipping was around $40u.s. works out to be an expensive hobby...

rico.29 Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 if i buy one gallon from USA to France shipping cost would be 80 usd or so + 30% custom tax on total amount (item + shipping) when shipped with certain company... here 1 liter is 21 euro , it's huge. so if someone feel like help me by shipping me plastic (liquid or pre heated) , you're welcome (i can pay with paypal), please PM.

robalo01 Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 (edited) I'm in Mexico. I've been buying from Bear. The price is good, shipping is prompt. I have it sent to the border and then forwarded here. It costs me a bout an extra 35% to get it here. I quit pouring plastics and started importing from the US about three years ago, then the peso fell about 45% in the course of 2 1/2 months. It is now more cost effective to pour again. For years I have tried to source plastisol here without any success. Now I am hot on the trail of a supplier in Mexico City. A customer of mine from Tampico is getting me the info. Aparently, PVC plastisol is used for a couple of other industries down here and the same supplier makes it for all of them: Metal coverings, T-Shirt printing and water-proofing for textiles. (like the 3-mm spray-on stuff). If anybody is here from Mexico, I'd like to hear from them. Edited July 20, 2009 by robalo01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
