Clear Coating Frogs With Clear Plastic Problems

[Bassinjunkie88]

Guys, when I make clear plastic, I don't add anything but a few drops of heat stablizer for 1 cup of plastic.  When I heat it the first time, it comes out clean and clear, but if I let it set and re-heat later, then it turns to a pee color.  How are you guys keeping it clear to clearcoat your baits?  I'm using it to clearcoat my frog eyes on my frogs.

What manufacturer of plastic? I heard some yellow regardless, and some do not.

Only thing I can think of is try and clear as many as you can and then I guess when you reheat, colour it and use it in the bait?

How are you heating? How hot are you getting it temp wise? Heat is your enemy on clear. Stirring will help also.

Afew drops of stabilizer is not enough. Use 1/4 tsp or more for a cup.
