  1. I'm new to the whole process of repainting lures. I've read some of the previous post regarding air brushing and found them to be very helpful. I'm a little confused on Primers still. I'm starting to prep some lures to repaint. Most are plastic but some are wood. I'm wondering if one brand of primer can be used for both wood and plastic or if I should buy separate primer for each. I saw were some guys like Painters Touch but it only referred wooden baits in the post I saw. Thanks for your input Doug
  2. My brother and I are planning on painting some baits and need some advice from you guys with some more experience. He was given an industrial air brush set that we plan on using. He used to create small displays and is very familiar with how to use the air brush but we?ve never painted any baits. What type of paint do you recommend? I was planning on going to the local hobby shop to buy some decent paints but I?m curious what types of paints you all use and where you get them. Can I paint over an existing color or should I sand it down with a fine sand paper? Or strip it with some other method? Should I give the bait a base coat of flat white? If so can I just use a regular can of generic flat white and then come behind with a lacquer? Any other tips are more than welcome. Thanks for any help you all can give me. Doug PS-I'm new here so if this has been covered somewhere else, can someone please direct me to the post or article. Thanks
