Plastic formula for Tubes
« on: 11/23/16 15:22 UTC »
In another forum it has been suggested that LC500 is best for tubes.
I looked it up and they say it has an additive that will 'toughen' it up.
Any idea what it might be?
Does DO-IT have a comparable plastic?
What do you use for tubes?

I don't think there is a better plastic than the Essential right out of the jug. Essential has incredible stretch and as a medium plastic is tougher than any other medium I have found.

Essential for sure! Tough stuff!

I do all my tubes in Essential.

In my opinion, you can't go wrong with Do-It's Essential Series plastisol for tubes.  Period.
Until next time.
