Advice to fellow first timers preparing to make the leap

Recommended Posts

Buy more plastisol! You need more than you think you will. I only ordered a quart because I didn't know what to expect, and I'm already out after day 1!! I went ahead and ordered a couple of different gallons tonight. I spent 4 hours in the garage experimenting with different temps, different ways to fill the injector, different injection styles, colors, reheats, etc. I ended up with several awesome results and ended up with some pretty jacked up defects.

Bad news is as soon as I opened the mold on the first batch that I nailed the color and texture exactly like I wanted and each bait was flawless, I felt this rush of adrenaline and saw visions of thousands of dollars flying out the window in the not so distant future!
