Thread: hot pots for plastisols

That is no joke, the only thing you can do is get it under COLD water. I always have a 5 gallon bucket of water to throw the baits in after they come out of the mold. One day I was only going to do one sample color, so I just put on brown jersey gloves. I got a big wad on my finger and it started getting hot, so I slung my hand and where did the plastic go. I was in shorts with no socks and just loafers, yeah right on my ankle. Scar is about 1.75" round and ruff as sandpaper and that was over 2 years ago. That puppy is there for life, and it took about 2 months to heal. Had my foot in the water bucket praying for it to cool. From that moment on I wear full battle gear, I don't care if it is to pour 1 bait.

I'll make sure I don't go barefoot and we will definitely find a pair of gloves.
