I've used it before.  It works well but my baits became oily after a couple months in their packages, not just a little oil but a lot.  I've had some other plastics leech out some oils but nothing like when I tried polysol.  Maybe this is an isolated occurrence.  I'm sure some others will chime in with their experiences soon.

The first time I used it when they first released it was horrible in every way.

Then I received some samples directly from Polysol, not Dead On, in January, and poured their hard and soft formulas, let them cure a couple days then bagged and dated.

So far my findings have been the soft does not bubbles and is not oily.  Still not oily in the bags since January 20. 
The hard bubbles way too much for what I do, but is not oily and actually has a great firmness for saltwater fishing.

Both took heat real well.

Regardless, I am sticking for now with what works for me...which is not PolySol. :)

I personally found the Polysol that I purchased to be very "gummy"  It gums up my injectors in a terrible way that requires full cleaning of the injectors after just a few injections.  The cooked plastic leaves a terrible oily residue in the Pyrex that again requires repeated cleanup.

Not sure if they have resolved these problems yet.  I did find that it was relatively bubble free.  The baits that it created were nice but tacky to the touch.

I have put the remaining 4 1/2 gallons in the shed and I only use it when I am trying out new colors.

They do not offer a "saltwater".  I assume you mean their "hard"?  They sent me a large batch to test, and I heated it in a temperature and humidity controlled environment.  Their "hard" bubbles.
