Bluegill Re-Paint

Waterlogged

I've made a few spray can baits in the past but I'm new at this airbrush stuff. Anyway, I re-painted this Super Shad Rap with my new Badger 360.

All colors are Createx paints.

Let me ask you this: I put a coat of Minwax spray polyurethane over the top to seal the paint. Do you think this enough or will I need to use a coat of 2 ton epoxy to protect the paint and prevent it from washing off?

Everything I've read on this site suggests that I need to use 2 ton epoxy but I don't want it to effect the action. Is spray poly enough?

-Thanks!

I really like this work. You chose a great bait to repaint. The Super Shad Rap is a real producer and runs great.

I would most certainly not use anything but epoxy. I'd choose either Devcon or Envirotex lite. If you're unfamiliar with the application of epoxy go with Devcon...its much less fussy and easier to work with.

And no, it will not affect the action of the bait. I've repainted a few of these myself and the bait will run just as it did before once you topcoat it with epoxy.

Nice work.
