DaveMc1 Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 It all depends on how long I have been running the plastic in the pots. Most times I can empty the pots fairly quick so I save the left overs for the next run and mix it with fresh plastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll have to experiment and keep accurate notes /records.Generally speaking, a 3 part new plastic to 1-2 parts used will work. Lighter colors require exact ratios- especially if you're adding ballast and salt to the mix. Generally. 3 parts new to 1 part used for light colors.providing the used plastic has not changed to an undesirable darken hue which in most cases cannot be brought back to the original color due to contamination. Used,laminated colors are an entirely different subject-some will work ,many will not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
