i just got into the hobby of hand pouring baits and its honestly a blast but laminates have so far kicked my butt.
I'm using deadon's jerk bait formula, following the instructions of heating past 350 on initial heat and then pouring my colors between 300-350f into silicon molds
the laminate looks pretty good to me through the length of the body however the nose and tail aren't fusing very well, it seems like all the lures that i have laminated to an abrupt stop (nose and tail) i can pull them all apart and they aren't totally filling in like they do when its a single color. if i stop half way down the body they seem to fuse pretty well.
i am pouring the first color into 3-4 molds then pouring the second so they aren't still 300 in the molds but they aren't cold.
my molds are left outside in a garage so they are getting kind of cold, its about 50ish here so they are probably colder
if its important i have a twin tail grub, 4''ish jerk bait and swim bait, 6'' segmented worm, and a beaver tail
thanks in advance and i apologize if this has been discussed in another thread however i did not see anything
