Had a friend ask a ? about plastic & idk if it'd be a good idea or bad

[DobynsTriton]

He asked if itd be possible to use a mixture of CCM plastic & a cheaper plastic so the good CCM plastic wouldnt go empty as fast. IMO id think it would be a flop since its 2 different formulas ect but i could be wrong

I wouldn't dooo Thaaat. Take it from the worlds best screw up artist . I even got a ten star rating .

[DobynsTriton]

Mix 1/2 great stuff...with 1/2 crappy stuff= crappy stuff!!!!

Make your buddies baits from the crappy stuff....and your baits from the CCM plastic!

You'll get bubbles different viscosity every thing clear will be yellow or amber and most colors will be dull or cloudy . In some cases one plastic will cook before the other and you'll wind up with a jello and milk in a cup . Nuff said or must I bare all my stupidness.

I have added remelts of other plastic to CCM with no problems when i needed a little more of a color.   But if you are doing it just to save money it kinda defeats the purpose of using the best!  Kinda like puttin cheap tires on a Cadillac!

thanks for all the input guys! lol RonDon it was his idea not mine

It will work just fine, but I am not sure why you use a premium with lesser grade as it would be the lesser grade in the end.  I have mixed different plastics several times, run out of one and have to add another to get a full batch.  They are both plastic, will just lose some of the properties that you bought CCM for, which brings us back to why would someone do that on purpose rather than out of necessity.

Cheaper plastic tends to smell worse, and produces more bubbles. The other fellow was correct about yellowing from the cheaper plastic. Cheaper isn't always better.
