I thought that I would report on the forum my observations on using PB Blaster Graphite Dry Lubricant on my boolit molds as a release agent.
I had a couple rifle boolit molds (primarily hollow point molds for 8mm, 9mm and 9.5 mm Mannlicher) that didn't seem to drop boolits readily despite cleaning and prepping as usual. 2 molds are aluminum and one brass. I read on a manufacturer's web page about using a graphite pencil to coat the hollow point pin as a release agent. I tried this but still had problems with sticking.
I had an aerosol can of PB Blaster Graphite Dry Lubricant in my cabinet so I decided to give a mold a generous spraying in the cavities as well as on the pins. I figured that I could always wash the residue off with acetone if my experiment was a failure.
I was pleasantly surprised with the outcome! Boolits dropped nicely even with the hollow point pins. I even got brave with a new mold and decided to give it a try from the start.......same outcome.
This product can be purchased at most automotive parts stores or even big box hardwares stores such as Lowes and Home Depot.
I did a quick search on the forum and didn't see much info about using this product. Thought that I would pass my experience along.
