Don't you need a specific type of plastic? I did not think you could melt down just any old plastic bait, doesn't the difference in density, salt content, etc make things a little difficult.

Just curious,

nope dan never had a problem and ive mixed some plastics that are really soft but tear easy and mixed it with just a little of the tougher plastic and it makes it a bit stronger but to less soft

What are you melting the old plastics in? Will a microwave work? I have one I'm about to get rid of that still works, I'll keep it if I can use it for that.
