Cormorant Lures Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 I am not a Lureworks expert... This is only the second batch of Pourasol I have ever ordered... My questions are as follows: How long has it been since they decided not to ship Pourasol in a standard 5 gallon bucket?!? At first I thought that only the "EZ Flow" was being shipped in the new, 2.5 gallon containers... I am wrong because my next batch which is Medium/Soft standard Pourasol came in the same containers... Since I am not a Lureworks expert (as of yet), Do I have to worry about "hard-packing" as soon as it comes off the UPS truck?!? How the hell are you supposed to stir the stuff or scrape any "hard-pack" in the new containers?!? I was actually hoping it would come in a standard 5 gallon bucket so my paint mixer would have no problems... The opening in the tops of these new 2.5 containers are to small for my mixer attachment... Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!! I want to make sure that if I am going to continue to use LW plastic, I need to know the ropes with this stuff... Thanks again!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Largehead Louie Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Every shipment I have received from them has been in the standard 2.5 gallon jugs. I've never had a 5 gallon bucket. Oh, and I always order at least 5 gallons of Pourasol Medium, sometimes 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 Always recieved it in the 2.5 gal containers. As for stirring the harder compounds require more stirring. I use some welding rod folded in half and tied together like a wisk. You could even put it in a drill and use it with power. I also store mine with the cap up and on the side. This helps you loosen the hardener when you mix it up. The sides are softer and bend more to loosen the settling. I like getting it like this cause they will actually put some small products in the top to help on shipping costs. Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 https://www.google.c...iw=1024&bih=609 While this may seem like a great idea and simple, it is not that easy. You see the bottom of the jug is not flat it has ridges that this product will not get in. This is the reason I use the welding rod it does get in those ridges and breaks up the hardener. Another reason to store it on its side. Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
