air hardening baits problem

Anyone else having baits harden when they are exposed (not in ziplock bags) over a period of time?

One of my customers is having issues with his baits hardening up in Plano boxes. Also, I have noticed baits hardening went left out on my work bench for several days.

I am using Lure Craft and MF plastic formulas.

Thanks,
Mickey

The only plastic that I've seen harden, is 3x plastic, especially if it touches plastisol lures. Come to think of it, my lurecraft plastic sticks are a little harder over time, but I've been mixing xtra strength with their regular stuff 1:1. Still, not what you describe.

Have you used anything like mineral oil for a mold release?
