It depends on the plastisol, not all have (palates) not sure on the spelling.

Just received my new Mini Shooting Star, and was wondering what is the best plastic for 4 1/2 jerk baits. Thinking about trying Deadon Plastic, because I can pick it up rather than having it shipped. But have never used their product before.
-
Well I finally bit the bullet and ordered one. This should make my life a lot easier. AT LEAST IT MAKES ME A LITTLE POORER

Try a welding supply store Silicon Bronze is gold colour
-
Mineral oil has no effect on my baits, I have been using it for 5 years now.
-
After you have purchased all needed supplies a 6 in worm will be about $0.15 ea in material.
-
Great work , congratulations to the winners and all that participated.
-
It's not for production by the looks . But great for most users.
-
Its all in the mixing , if its separated you have to stir the bottom of the container . Shaking it will not do much.
-
As I said after three months I see no effect on the plastic or the colour.
-
Don't know about that but after 3 months they are still soft and pliable, just like when they were made.
-
It's been great no effect on the bait and after a week they are not oily or sticky. Just a few drops in the bag and move them around then let them be.
-
I use pure mineral oil get it at the drug store.
-
You can always add hardener or softener. To make it what you want.
-
I was wondering if you filled the fryer with oil and then put a weighted pot in the oil with your plastasol. THAT WAY NO HEATING ELEMENT TO BURN THE PLASTIC. Just a thought.

Venting upwards is not good, Then it has to pass your face. Horizontal is the best or downward, through an outdoor exaust
-
Thanks for info.

Welcome There are a lot of helpful people here so do not be afraid to ask questions.

Most hobby company's are very busy , at the present time . I know because I also have been waiting for a new mold. Not from CNC only because they did not offer the mold I was looking for.
-
I don't understand it for sure , I have a customer that orders 1000 at a time. That takes me 10 days to make to make them . My mold has only 3 cavities, and I hand pour the bottom half. Most of my customers purchase 100 at a time. I don't have that many customers and am not interested in expanding ,I'm retired and started it as a hobby but it is beginning to look like a part time job.

This is my first winter doing soft baits should I be concerned with freezing temperatures, and leaving the plastisol in my unheated garage. Temperatures go down to 20 F , sometimes lower.

The 300 series stainless steel is non heat treatable, so no it can not be annealed. The 400 series stainless is hear treatable and can be softened or hardened. There are many options to stainless steel and many series including 700 series. Inconel, nickel, monel, bronze, nickel bronze, are also to be considered if available check you local welding supplier sometime they have rolls of stainless that can't be used for welding, for one reason or another, and you can get real cheap..

There is a company in Windsor Ontario, Canada. Bondy Baits They make a lot for Bass Pro
-
OH I agree there is a wealth of info from some great people on this site. Thank you all.

In the past I had purchased some finesse minnows from Bass Pro they had a glow tail . Anyway half of them fell off before I got to use them. They must need a much higher temp to fuse.
