braveviper Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 I recently melted down some various old worms to make some jig trailers and noticed they were very sticky even when they were completely dry.Anyone have this happen?

alsworms Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 Yep......usually happens for either one of or all of these reasons....... worm oil salt cheap plastisol You will find this to be more of a problem with some of the older injected baits.

Gloomisman Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 I melted down some old real old worms. They were horrible. I junked it. zoom is one of the main ones I've found that works real good for remelted plastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 Some re-melts will go off like a volcano.(well not quite,lol) But it will foam up quite a bit. Try re-melting Berkley for an interesting smell. Yuck. Although I haven't re-melted anything for quite a few years. www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
