oil on plastics?

I was wondering what kind of oil it is on plastic jigs when you buy them? I have always wondered what they use?

Send a pm to Snake River. I am sure he will answer this question for you. I keep mine after I get them in some anise and garlic salt with a little p-nut oil. Tell him Old Ship told ya to pm.

I sometimes spray mine with PAM

Hey David,
Are you spraying them in the bag or just before tossing them in the water?

I spray them in the zip lock bag

they probably use mineral oil or I use Pam

the best thing to use is worm oil, lure craft , bass tackle, M F all sell it about 12 bucks a quart. Other oils work but some will react to plastic making it hard as a rock. hope this helps

what do they use for oil is this a mineral oil like I mentioned or something else I would imagine all cooking type oil might work .

Do Not Use Mineral Oil ...

To make sure U are using the correct thing ... Use Worm Oil .. Special made for this purpose & available from suppliers of Plastisol products.

Tried Mineral Oil Years Ago ... not good unless you want to shrink and harden your lures.

I use anise oil. It is suppose to also be a fish attractant. It works pretty good and is pleasant to smell as long as you do not huff it ha ha.
