Hi guy's here it is i used gorilla glue Epoxy it's pretty thin and worked out good.
I used a cheap 20 cent brush that i cut near the bottom of the bristles so it got stiffer so i can paint the epoxy on... got some bristles that came lose into the mold but mostly on the flat top as i pushed them up out of the mold but it should not matter... guess that's what happens when you use a 20 cent brush.

Anyhow here is my lure creation who knows how it will work...i am going to wait 24 hours before try and pour some.

let me know what you think of this thing!

Thanks
Shen

Is that a 2 piece mold? Or do you just plan on trying to pour it flat and level?

Make sure your POP mold has cured for two weeks before you apply heat to it from the alumisol or it might crack. I use to make sinker molds from POP and two weeks is the key.
I think my bucket list has a hole in the bottom!

Thanks for the tip but i baked mine for a few hours at like 300deg it's 100% dry so it's good to go :-)

Hi it's one piece I will quickly pour the rubber into it very fast then i quickly press a flat plexiglas sheet over the top of the mold and trim off the thin excess rubber.. I do this with my lizardpole lure i made and it works great.
Thanks
Shen
