Stick Recipe For M,f Sinking Plastic

[HAWGHUNNA]

Anyone willing to share this info. I'm using injection and having problems with the mold not filling in the center of the stick cavities.

I just wandered if I was using to much salt ..... 3/4 cup plastic .... 3 1/2 tblspns ultra fine salt (about 1 1/2 ounces).

Does this formula sound correct?

I have read to use 35/40% less than my old hand pour formula,and the above recipe takes me to that point.

Mold was heated,plastic was hot,but I am a newbee with the injector,so any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,Terry

The formula sounds about right. I hope you are using the sinking soft. You do have to use some sftener with it. About 1 capful per cup. At least this what I find works best for me. Remember, this is a denser plastic so it will take a little longer to get it to a good pourable state. It sounds like you are not getting the plastic hot enough.
