Tincturing Solution
Diethyl Phthalate is used for tincturing white musk,keystone musk,ambrett & most synthetic musk.works faster on ingredents and glands that you would use propylene glycol for

not that i know of hawkeye.in fact the only source i have found it for sale was from trappers arts.paul was talking about the letter D on t-man and a few other lure makers would also use the letter D in post but never posted the word .that got my coursity up and i research the net for months and the only word in ingredents with a D was the ingredent word called Diethyl Phthalate.then i started asking questions about it to top lure makers with the door being slamed shut.then i called art and he told me what i wanted to know.when the doors got shut right off the bat i knew i was on the right track

lol ... SECRET??? ... reckon anything ya don't already know or don't hear the masses talking about could be construed as a "secret" ... but DEP aint no secret ;D but from what I read here on this thread and gather from what is said ... the so called "SECRET" is safe ... as your lack of what you actually believe you know pretty much secures that the "SECRET" is safe

Possumskinner, tell us what you know about this stuff. Where can we get it and what is it used for and is it worth the effort, time, and money?

"DEP, or diethyl phthalate, is a clear, practically odorless liquid. It is the lightest in weight of the commonly used phthalates. In use for more than 50 years, it conveys a very important performance benefit to perfumes and other personal care products: when fragrances are dissolved in it, their scent lingers longer." Everclear or vodka works for me. Readily available locally. It behooves the lure/baitmaker to get a reliable source of UNCUT, HIGH QUALITY oils, ingredients, etc..., to tincture to begin with. Good ingredients make more difference in the final product than anything else.(all other things being equal) Some of the stuff being sold out there is pure junk to begin with. (Ask me how I know this) Everybody out there says their stuff is "pure and uncut", but after a while buying from several suppliers, you'll notice the difference. Sorry about the side track.

Nothing to be sorry for, I'm absorbing as much information as I can, not that I will ever do anything with it, but a friend of mine's son is wanting to get in to lure making and has been bugging me about my 'secret' concoctions. When I tell him there's no secret and tell him what I do he thinks I am holding out.
Danged kids keep overthinking this trapping. I keep telling them on T Man to quit worrying about coon bait and contaminating a set with their scent and I keep telling them to worry more about finding sign and bedding the trap, but they won't listen. Looking for that perfect bait! And when they set where there aren't any coon they think they left too much of their scent or the bait was wrong.
