canuck Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Just wondering if you guys could give me your feed back on the benefits, draw backs of using either system to get two color plastic baits. Just researching and educating myself before purchasing equipment. Will all molds work for duel color application and give consistent end results while using duel port injector adapter? Thanks in advance for your feed back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walleyeking Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 I do both and NO not all molds can be duel injected. I should say they can be but with some configurations it would be side by side lamanated not bottom and top. I like the duel injector as long as I want the whole bait laminated but other baits I don't care for tails to be lamanated so I use the plate on them. You need to keep the blending block warm for best results also. As far as cons. The only real con to me besides that it's more things to do at one time keeping 2 colors hot is that you waste more plastic with the duel injector. All your sprues will be lamanated to so there's no remelting them to reuse unless you like the color they make mixed together. Just my opinions here, but I think both ways have their time and place.

Driftwood Posted March 6, 2016 Report Share Posted March 6, 2016 I like the dual injectors. As far as the laminated left over plastic, I just add black and use it for my black color baits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaBehr Posted March 6, 2016 Report Share Posted March 6, 2016 I know this is of little help....but... Laminate plates are easier. Dual injector is faster. The result is the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
