The Dutchman Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 I have been using Lurecraft plastic for years but there is entirely too much work to keep it mixed. There is always a hard mess in the bottom that has to be loosened and stirred. From what I read here Calhoun and M-F plastic needs little mixing as it doesn't settle like Lurecraft. I know some people are loyal to Calhoun's and M-F and maybe Lurecraft plastisol - what is your take on the plastisol you are using. I am ready to purchase a 5 gallon bucket.

D.J. Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 I have used them all. Calhoun's is better than L.C., but in my opinion, I feel that M-F is the best out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senkosam Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 Del and April have had problems with Calhoun's lately and the company, while not admitting a problem, has sent Del samples of their new and improved stuff. It turned out to be the same good plastic we ordered over a year ago and hopefully will remain best. As far as bubbles forming when the plastic is nuked, that problem has been solved and April told me last night that they have an additive that prevents bubbles from forming. Future drums won't have the problem, which is good to know, since I don't care for the smell and easy smoking of M-F, LC or 3D, even though M-F plastic is top grade. Unless there is a better or cheaper alternative, I'm sticking with Calhoun's once April gets it in in two weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
