I've Been Living In The Dinosaur Age

Using Do-It Plastisol. Have been using it for years due to people pumping it up but I just haven't been satisfied with it. Browns too easy, doesn't retain heat or your color well and bubbles, bubbles, bubbles!!! The bubbles I've gotten use to and have no problem getting rid of. It's the browning which distorts your lighter colors I have a problem with the more you heat it.

Last night I used some of Leonard's *********s Premium plastisol and I was wowed. Minimal bubbles, retained heat and color very well and no browning. I was able to shoot an 8oz heat in minimal time and got a total of 9 heats out of it and probably had enough for one more carrot tail shoot.

Here is a carrot from the 1st heat compared to another one from the 9th heat.

Looking good .

You didn't need to add stabilizer?

So was I,till I went to school on plastisol (still in pre-school) I watched Lenard reheat plastic in front of me no stabilizer and made a believer out of me! I have maybe 2 gals of essentials when that's all gone I will be using only one brand . I have reheated some also 9 times and still consistent! I'm all about reusing plastisol and not pitching a brown material in the trash

I added a few drops here and there. Don't know if I really needed it.

Thanks doc enjoy the tip's also new to pouring.Have been trying several plastic's price is the deal breaker right now.Have tried Do-it,Bears, lurecraft.Thanks.Not to walk on your thread.How do you keep your plasic's from getting out of shape after pouring? thanks

Just returned from your site. All I could find was a skid price.

you got to select the degassed/non degassed clsub category. i will see if i can make that a bit more navigatable.

I've been real pleased with *********s plastisol for a few years now and I don't even own any heat stabilizer.
