joelhains Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 I'm moving from Ohio to Ontario. I'm trying to find a plastisol source in Canada. Shipping is bad enough when shipping from the US to the US. I don't even want to think about how much it will cost to ship across the border. Where do you Canadian bait makers get your plastisol from? Is there any place in Canada that sells it? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveMc1 Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 I import it from the US, as do most. I think there is one guy that sells Calhoun up here (don't have any other info on him) but from the prices I've heard its no better than just shipping it over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim2199 Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 I believe plasticworld website has Alumisol in a couple sizes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim2199 Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 Just wanted to provide an update. Luremaking.com is now carrying soft plastic and accessories. They are based out of ontario so shipping will be a bit more reasonable for you. I'm over in Alberta, but I might purchase some plastisol from them cuz its still cheaper than getting it shipped from a US supplier. I have ordered some other stuff from them and was happy with their service. You just have to look at their online catalogue. When I ordered in the past I called them directly because I was in a hurry. Hope this helps Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curt k Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 (edited) the plastic from plastic world is cheaper http://plasticworld.ca/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=157 I'm not sure how the alumilite plastic is but shipping to BC isn't too bad , so I'll be grabbing 5 gallons soon for torture testing Edited April 7, 2015 by curt k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim2199 Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 Cool let us know how it goes. I see that the plastisol from luremaking is phthalate free (the main health hazard in most soft plastics) so I'm sure that accounts for the price difference.

It's one of them, but not the main, the main would be the heat stabilizer that you inhale while working with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
