Hello folks, I just recently began casting, and having a great time with it. I'm starting to create a nice looking boolits. Good mold fillout, weights vary at times, but not by much. My real issue is with lubing the boolits. I've tried the
50/50 of parrafin wax and vaseline with 2 tbls of STP. I attempted several practices which have yielded no good results. I've warmed the boolits, no good results there. Ran them through the sizer and tumbled for 20 mins to remove the alox, still no good results. I was searching the web and have concluded that i am missing an important step somewhere in my process. After i pour the mixture in a flex pan, I let sit for 3 hours to room temp, Then remove the slab of boolits. I have attempted to remove from the back and front with no good results. The dang lube wont stick for some reason. Is there another way to make the lube stick? Please help. Thanks for any assitance. Have a safe shooting day.
