TootsMalone Posted April 25, 2020 Report Share Posted April 25, 2020 I agree with Dan, slow set resin is the way to go. Alumilite high strength 2 for silicone. CT-TahoeBassFishing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mix mine the same as i do with regular resin. The slow set just allows me to mix longer and more thoroughly before i get it into the molds. The regular stuff i have used (amazing white and RC-3) has a pot life of 2 minutes where as the slow set is 7 minutes. By the time i'm done mixing and pouring the micro balloons really don't have much time to rise in the resin before it starts curing (a couple minutes at most). I was worried about the same thing at first. But after 2 pours, i don't think i'll ever use the faster stuff again unless i'm in a pinch. a_mum and CT-TahoeBassFishing 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
