Tried laminates again the past several days. Tried on Baby shad stinger type molds for top/bottom laminate. Tried with two different manufacturer molds. Jacobs and Bears. Heated pink in one cup and white in the other. Heated them both to 330 degrees. Both at same temp. I heated the molds, blending block and twinjector and shot. Some baits did not fill out and the laminates looked mixed. Tried a second mold immediately and white plastic bypassed up into the pink injector and corrupted the whole batch of that color. The few baits that did turn out were smudged up to barely noticing the white belly I was trying to accomplish.

I also bought a laminate plate from Jacobs and tried it. first baits I tried tuned out pretty good. Tried to get the second shot of plastic injected at 350 to insure a good weld. Tried a second shot of baits and the colors just pealed apart just like about every other time I have tried this method. I was told to make sure My lam plates were clean doing this. I checked the plate before the second shot it was powder dry and clean. I can make any body to tail color lam work great now. These belly to top lams have whipped me. The stinger type baits are the type baits that got me in this hobby. If I can't do these baits, I will consider giving this hobby up. I don't like to but I have spent too much money already and tried so many things and just can't seem to find anything that works.CF
