Mercury Posted July 14, 2003 Report Share Posted July 14, 2003 Soft plastic, salt, color, and somthing to cook it with, I perfer a microwave and pyrex cup, but others do use pots. Cook the salt and plastic, then add color, and pour. Thats about it. Just pour slow and on one side of the mold. It will fill to the top with no trapped air (bubbles) Takes a little bit to get used to, but does well. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senkosam Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 If it's a Lurecraft mold, remember, the worm will be slimmer. If you're melting old worms, you just need a pyrex container, popsicle sticks (for stirring), and microwave. Check and stir every 30 sec. after all is melted to Karo syrup consistancy. Pour enough to fill the convave surface that will occur due to cooling, plastic contraction. For a glossier finish, put some scented oil into the cavity just begor pouring. For liquid plastisol, you need dye, flakes(optional) and Salt (powder). Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercury Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 If your lucky enough to have one (or more ) of dels molds watch the top pour hole. The liquid plastic will sink into the bait as it cools. When you see it starting to lower just top it off. After you pour several baits. Stir the plastic again, This will keep the salts from setteling. If you are using a hot pot watch for fire ball's post. He should have eitehr plans or the actual device for stirring the plasitc/salt mix while pouring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
