Dead on plastix sells their 5 gallon for 114. I just started this hobby so I do not have much experience to know what good quality vs bad quality is but some of the people I follow swear by this stuff so I use it and I like it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Young Posted May 8, 2020 Report Share Posted May 8, 2020 I didn't know about it at first, but i've used baitjunkys, lureworks & baitplastics & i just ordered another 5 gallon batch of baitplastics plastic. The only thing i don't like is the jug it comes in & would rather it have the regular old small gallon jug mouth. The bag in the box from lureworks is great too in my opinion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aulrich Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 Does that price include shipping? I Just got a 5 gallon of dead on IIRC $ 250 CAD total (plastic + shipping + Duty/Brokerage.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aulrich Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 Must be a Quebec thing, I have had gotten 15 gallons over 2 shipments in the last couple of months, I am assuming that the manifests were at least given a digital inspection for general legalities and such. I did pay a stupid amount for the chance to get it over the border after all (it added 25% to the total bill this last time). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am in Canada I regularly have resin, paint, and cleaner shipped to me I also know I can have plastisol shipped because I have inquired on the cost from one supplier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aulrich Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 Yes, Alberta Mind you what Canada Post ships could be the issue, my cross border stuff was handled by UPS. I did by some from Canadian Vendors I forget off hand how they were shipped , One place ended up being close to 100$/Gallon the other was more reasonable but it was the do-it plastic so mehl. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aulrich Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 After going through my first 5 gallons of Dead-on , I won't be switching any time soon. I find it a decent value and I like working with the plastic. We will see how it handles the inside of a pike's mouth we will see in the next few weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From research some say they like it but it can be inconsistent. But I don’t have first hand experience I have only remelted some old plastics To try a few things so far.

aulrich Posted May 12, 2020 Report Share Posted May 12, 2020 Yes the volatile paints are still an issue, I have not tried to get any in a while. Regular pigments use to be the same, I think the issue was at the time was the packaging was not certified to survive going to altitude (or at least that was the excuse they gave). When it comes to regulatory stuff it's a moving target so it pays to ask the question every once in a while just in case the answer changes. Or at some point i'll just get the paint shipped to my sister in Iowa and have her bring it up when she comes to visit our folks. Alumilite plastisol is OK, i have been through a couple of gallons of the stuff, it did hold up well for big pike swimbaits , would have to try it again to do a proper Alumisol vs Dead on, my skills with plastic have improved a fair bit in the last months.
