I figured rather than start another thread, I'd just post to this thread. I did my first pours with virgin plastisol today. I was just trying to get some color recipes going. I learned a few things. I learned that the transparent orange colorant that I bought that was listed as non bleed on the Lurepartsonline.com web site, does in fact, bleed. And pretty quickly too. I poured one bait using it and after letting it cool down, I stuck it in a bag with some chunked up white plastic. It started to bleed into the white within about 20 mins. I'll be dropping Lurepartsonline an e mail to let them know. I learned that Bait Plastics Super Tough plastisol, really is super tough. lol It's hard to even tear it. It should make a good pad material for the craw chunk trailers I'll be making. Way too stiff for the claws though. I'll probably be doing the top of them with medium. The super tough also stays pretty thick even when it's been brought to 350 degrees. I learned that a little glitter goes a long way. lol And I learned that getting that just right color takes a while. But it's worth it. And I learned what I already knew that I would learn. And that is that this pouring baits stuff is addictive as all get out. lol
