Richard Prager Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 I don't know if it's the best place to buy it, but oomoo 25 is made by www.smooth-on.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long Lake Lures Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 I haven't used Oomoo-25, but Oomoo-30 works very well. Try Dick Blick art supplies. The starter kit also includes casting resin which is handy if you are making your own lures. Hope this helps, Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smallie Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 I use the Oomoo 25 and I have not found a cheaper place to buy it than Smooth-On. I have bought several of the trial sizes over the last few years. Unless you are going to make several molds at once, don't buy the larger sizes because this stuff has a shelf life. I started with Micro Mark and then tried Oomoo. I left half a container of Micro Mark sitting on the shelf while I tried the Oomoo. When I went back to use it up, it had hardened. I like the Oomoo because it cures quickly but I didn't see a difference other than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piscivorous Pike Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 I was just about to order form here, saw this thread. Anyone know about this, is it reasonable?

Smallie Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 From what I can see, the up front cost is about the same as Smooth-On. Don't know how shipping will affect this. If you want a quick mold to pour time, the Oomoo 25 will beat the 2 hours quoted on the web site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piscivorous Pike Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 Since my last post I have been studying mold making in TU and reading all of the manufacturer sites. I think I should go with smooth-on for my purposes too. Thanks all for the input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
