heman Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 So this idea just came to mind.. and I was wondering if anyone has tried it or thought of it.. I think this pertains to people who have injectors, but what about using a deep fryer to heat up and keep your plastisol warm while you inject? it covers most of the basics that are needed i think right? (well except for the stirring), but it can help to keep a fairly constant temperature and its pretty cheap. just a thought.. i'm still new to this but i get these weird ideas now and then $25 at Lowes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jesse1378 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 seems like it would work, but you can get a presto pot for the same price and its been proven to work. you can use them for pouring as well. just add a valve on the bottom.

Dont know about the one you showed the best one by far that I know of is Crock pots they are all glass/ceramic and the temp stays more constent. of cource there is no place for a mixer. the problem with other pots is they are made out of alum or pot metal and the heatlin element only works on the bottom and not the sides so the heat doesnt get distributed evenly. The guys that have used crock pots like them much better especially for colors with glitter in them and colors that burn easy, they say they heat the plastic more evenly. some guys built stands for mixers to set on the top. another thing really nice about crockpots is there glass/ ceramic and the plastic comes right out NO stcking ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
