Hello all!!!
I joined the site a couple of years ago and visit frequently, but this will be my first official question I just purchased an airbrush to give this custom painting thing a whirl so I looked through the archives and found most of what I need to get where I want to go, but I'm a little confused about a couple of things. I'm going to be spraying mostly blade baits and spinners for worm harnesses and maybe some cranks down the road if I get the hang of things. First off...since the blades are metal I've read that I should primer them after a good scuffing. Will the Super Hide work for this or is it more of a base coat AFTER the primer? If this is the case...I assume that I would need a water based primer to work with the Createx airbrush paints? Also...I've never used Super Hide. Is this the same stuff that Benjamin Moore produces? Next....I've read everything under the sun about top coats and have decided to try the Dick Nite brand due to folks saying it goes on thin. I'm afraid that using a thicker type coating will effect the action of the blades and spinner blades....somebody correct me if I'm wrong. One last thing I was wondering...can you use the Createx paints of powder paint? It may be in the archives, but dang....I struggle with the search function on this site for some reason!!! Thanks guys.
