Recently we have had some isolated issues with Vudu Shrimp melting or distorting. Also becoming
sticky and gummy. What we have found out that the material used to build Vudu is called TPE
(THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMER) common and almost everywhere you look, from tennis shoes to
toys. It’s the TPE that gives the shrimp durability and strength. It’s way stronger than commonly
used Plasticol (most soft plastic lures).
Please do not store Vudu Shrmp with other plastics. Not even in the same tray or enclosure. PVC
leaches oil and in extreme heat, a gas that will react with the Vudu. Especially in a closed box that
will condensate those gases.
Best bet is a standard zip lock bag used for soft plastics. It can be an old used bag, but rinse it with
mild soap and wipe it clean inside. Can’t have oil from old plastics. Also, like all plastic lures, it’s
best not to leave out in direct sunlight for a long time.
