BuckeyeFishing Posted November 15, 2018 Report Share Posted November 15, 2018 Will adding heat stabilizer to a plastic remelt do anything or am I just wasting it? I have some plastic that I poured before I got heat stabilizer and I want to remelt it to pour some more of that color. I don't want to waste supplies but if it will keep the plastic from discoloring, I will add it during the remelt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basscatlildave Posted November 15, 2018 Report Share Posted November 15, 2018 I'm no expert by no means but I do a lot of remelts as I've been saving plastics for years. I always add stabilizer when I remelt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jig Man Posted November 15, 2018 Report Share Posted November 15, 2018 (edited) I use it for light color remelts but don't for darker colors. When I remelt I do it in short 20-30 second bursts on the microwave. Stabilizer has a color to it so I only use a few drops when I use it.

Cole's Customs Posted November 15, 2018 Report Share Posted November 15, 2018 I have found for me that it helps me get more reheats out of my plastic, not scorch plastic, and reduce the color fading 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
