fshng2 129 Posted March 8, 2017 Report Share I have been experimenting with acrylics for wood lures lead bucktails and flies. I also used some acrylics on the crawfish fly. I want to use acrylic because it's safe and non toxic. I have added some flow medium to help lessen brush strokes. How do you minimized or eliminate brush strokes when using acrylics?

I think the quality of the paint and ability to be "watered down" plays a pretty big role in it...although I've never tried painting flies before so I can't help you there lol! Hope this helps!
