mark poulson Posted August 4, 2019 Report Share Posted August 4, 2019 I get a shinier bait if I spray my silicone molds with PAM cooking spray first, and after every other pour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like how it makes boot tail swimbaits easier to demold without stretching warm plastic out of shape.

keakar Posted August 9, 2019 Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 are these molds you made yourself? or store bought molds? i saw some videos that mentioned you should never use anything but brand new baits to make molds and you need to lube them first or it can cause deformed and rough textured molds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted August 10, 2019 Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 They are Lurecraft silicone top pour one piece molds. I've been using the same molds for more than 10 years, and they still pour fine. https://www.lurecraft.com/SILICONE-OPEN-POUR-MOLDS/departments/34/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Landry Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 As your mold warms the worms will come out shinier and shinier. Pam helps too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Lake Lures Posted November 26, 2019 Report Share Posted November 26, 2019 If you want to resurface the cavity, you can cast a bait with resin, apply gloss so that it shines the way you want and then add fresh silicone to the cavity. Scrape off the excess and allow it to set up. Sometimes the silicone from a newly poured mold will stick to the master. This is the technique I use to save the mold 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
