Mold Release Spray

[cadman]

This comment goes out to River Rat316. Ah ha, so someone is paying attention and someone must be following my other information. You will not be sorry, I have been doing a lot of personal testing with this stuff and you can't beat it. I, like you, can not stand having black soot all over my hands, all over my molds and jigs, and then when you touch something it's all over that as well, and don't forget when you oil your mold hinge and mix that with the soot well you get the picture. I too was hesitant at using this. I can kick myself in the butt for not trying it sooner. Let me know how you like it. You can PM me if you like.

For all others, this is regarding a mold release spray called "Drop Out" by Frankford Arsenal. It is used to coat lead mold halves to make the jigs come out easier. To me this is by far the best thing to use for lead molds.

that stuff typically works very well for casting bullets.  They have more sharp angles then most lures.  So I can see why it works so good.

Cadman,  any clue if that would help with bismuth/tin pours?

I can't see why not, guys add tin to lead all the time. I can't give you a definite answer on that though. Sorry about that.

Drop Out works great.

I've used it for years for bullets, jigs and sinkers using everything from pure lead to linotype alloy (4% tin, 12% Antimony, 84% lead) and had no problems. I don't see any reason it wouldn't work just as well for a bismuth/tin alloy.

I get it from Midway.
