borderbasser Posted September 21, 2005 Report Share Posted September 21, 2005 I recently made some dark black baits with red flake and the baits initialy turned out great. I started out with about 12 oz. of M-F regular plastic in my cup and by the time I was half way through with the cup, my baits started having a green tint to them. I was pouring some big beavers and reheating after 4 pours. I have an IR temp gun and I randomly check my temperature. I rarely pull a cup out of the microwave over 330 degrees. Also, I have had this problem with both LC and Del black. Is black just one of those colors that has a heat issue? Would some heat stabilizer solve my problems. Oh, I forgot to mention, there is also some black glitter and no salt in the mix. Thanks for any suggestions. TJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted September 21, 2005 Report Share Posted September 21, 2005 It's a heat problem; but don't throw those sticks away, they fish pretty good. Try to not mix so much plastic at a time. I rarely heat more that 8 oz at one time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
