Hello everyone! Sorry to have to make this my first post on here. But I am running into a little bit of trouble over here trying to make more Senko style baits.
Long story short. I have had my supplies sitting around for a little bit (about a year or so...). And now am trying to get back into it as I am getting more free time now and can not seem to find where I had my "recipe" anywhere. Checked over at the place where I got my molds from del-mart.com and am not finding to much over there that is working. I also am not finding the supplies I used to buy from them so I am also looking for a new supplier of the plastics and salt and hardner etc....
The recipe I am getting over there is as follows.. taken from http://www.del-mart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=11
For Regular Soft Plastic:
In a 2 cup pyrex measuring cup mix:
1 cups of Plastic.
1/4 cup Softener
Add colors (before heat or after)
put in the microwave till the plastic is ready to pour (follow the microwave instructions)
then take a teaspoon and slowly stir while adding in 1/2 cup of salt
For SuperSoft Plastic:
In a 2 cup pyrex measuring cup mix:
1 cups of Plastic.
Softener NOT needed for SuperSoft Plastic as the plastic is already has alot of softener in it.
Add colors (before heat or after)
put in the microwave till the plastic is ready to pour (follow the microwave instructions)
then take a teaspoon and slowly stir while adding in 1/2 cup of salt
I am using the top recipe and everything is to soft. I tried to add more salt, same thing just a few clumps seems like. Tried to add more placstic that I still have laying around from Del-mart.com, still a no go.
I guess I am looking for some basic recipes to try and play with a little. And also some good suggestions on some suppliers as I am now running out of supplies after so many failed batches..
Thanks,
Nathan
