re: Making multiple color pours

Tylerd1994, on laminates or multi color pours in a 2 piece mold you'll need to pour the bottom color in the mold first with it open and wait a few seconds for the plastic to settle a hair then put the mold together and pour the second color pretty hot. On one piece molds I pour them really close together as far as timing so there is no dividing line. If your using aluminum the molds need to be warm or you will have a cold crack where the colors meet. It takes practice but you can do it. As far as the frog, don't wait so long before pouring the second color, and pour the second color again pretty hot so they will bond. You can use a divided pyrex cup for 2 color pours as well. Do a search on here and you'll see what I mean. Shane.

Re: Making multiple color pours

Those baits in the picture have a powdered hi lite added to clear or base color and it reflects to streaky or differant hue of color. I use them lots.

Re: Making multiple color pours

Are you talking about the flake in the bait, or the black and bottom color, or the reflection of the hi lite in the bottom color?

Re: Making multiple color pours

Those are done like I was saying in earlier posts. You open the 2 piece mold up lay it flat, pour the first color in one half of the mold, wait a few seconds for the plastic to settle a little then close the mold and pour the scond color down the mold like usual only a little hotter than normal and there you go. There are lots of tricks and things you learn as you go. If you heat up the molds a little you shouldn't have a visible line or "cold crack" down the side.

Re: Making multiple color pours

Do a search on here and see the divided cups some of us use and ask your ad to help you build one. That will help pour two at once. You can do swirls and laminates with them with a little practice. You can get a differant cool effect but it "wastes" lots of plastic because you can only re use it for black after wards but you can heat up like a dark color of plastic ready to pour then drop some lighter colors of colorant in it and bairly stir it where the color is floating not mixed in and pour your baits it gives it a nice almost swirled look.
