bamf-lures Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 1.) rtv mold substitutes? rtv is too expensive needs to hold up to atleast a few pours and forgiving 2.) I'm using urethane because I couldn't find vinyl to make a durable deflating body...its a hollow body but wen I poured it I had hellacious air bubbles..any one work with it yet its the 30 strength from alumalite???? 3.) I guess I have to build a rotational molder to make hollow body..but anyone I can contract to make any hollow body at all with the urethane that might have a rotational molder to see if its even do-able?

bamf-lures Posted December 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 also what exactly is a laminate body? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gone2long Posted December 12, 2013 Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 Lamination is where you inject or pour 2 or more colors so as an example belly is white and top green pumpkin they need to be poured while first pour is still tacky but not quite liquid to get a good seam or if you inject most use a Twinjector where the 2 colors are injected at same temp and at the same time. Can't help ya on the hollow frog thing I haven't read about any success with it either. Sounds like you need to de-air your material that you are pouring there are some good video's on you tube on how to make a small vacuum chamber for that purpose.

Baitjunkys Posted December 12, 2013 Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 With urethane you actually put it inside a pressure pot. It sets to fast to degass in vacuum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
