jigman Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 I am using a 1 piece resin mold.When I pull the bait out of the mold the edges on the bottom of the bait are ragged and torn looking. The rest of the bait looks fine.I have sanded all the edges smooth.Do I need to use a release agent or seal the mold? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuMMeRBaits Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 I just usually use a dremil (sp) tool to clean up the edges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 It might be that you are not putting enough plastic in the mold. As the plastic cools it contracts and settles into the mold. This may be why your edges are ragged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texasbass1 Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 I use worm oil on my resin molds to help the baits come out easier and cleaner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgtbonecrusher Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 i use Pam Cooking spray......its awesome! leaves a shiny finish and it releases great.....just reapply a flash coat every couple pours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jig Man Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 I use a Dremel tool to clean the edges of the mold then go over that with 600 grit wet dry sand paper. When pouring I spray the mold with garlic spray. The baits release easily and smell like garlic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
