POP???

So I'm wanting to get into pouring my own worms. Seems like these POP molds are a decent way to get in for beginners but I don't know what exactly POP is. Is that some sort of plaster? Like the kind you'd use on walls? Are there any brands or types that you'd recommend b4 i go to Home depot? Thanks


ps more questions to follow im sure hehe


pss Hi all this is my first post. Ive been fishing for about 6 months now and I'm loving it. I live in MD right now but from TX. I fish out of Liberty Res. mostly so if you see some newbie on the bank not catching anything ... that's probably me

Re: POP???

I am still working on a few problems but i made a mold from powdered durabond 90 last night. Almost indestructable. BUT even thinned alot I still had bubble issues. I have been a drywall finisher for years as a side job thng and never thought to try it till I cleaned a bucket out the other day that i for got to wash after using it.

Re: POP???

Hey Randy,

I had a buddy awhile back tell me they make a powdered drywall compound thats supposed to set/cure in 5-15 minutes........ ever heard of that stuff?

Think it would be worth trying?

Re: POP???

That would be the Durabond. It's used on corners, abused type areas and places that need a stronger finish. Sets up in 15min- an hour depending on which one you use. Hard as a rock in hours. If i can get it to work it is another inexpensive mold material.
