jigmeister Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 I noticed that some "MF" saltwater plastic seems to be prone to yellowing when pouring transparent "smoke" colored baits . Since this formulation is harder (thicker?) I am wondering if it is a temperature thing due to possibly heating it more to get the flow when pouring I am used to ? Definately worse with each reheat. Do you need heat stabilizer with saltwater plastisol? Thanks -Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basseducer Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Ken, I think you are right that heat is your culprit. I use a presto pot and I usually make 64 oz batches. I found that my last couple dozen or so baits were getting yellow. On my transparent baits I cut the batch down to 32 oz. and added two table spoons of heat stabilizer. Then I turn the temp down to where it still pours well and try to empty the pot as quicly as possible. Now I get clean, bright clear baits right to the end. And I can use the remnants in the next batch. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
