Yeah kinda strange all the other forums you post and it shows up in the unread since last visit column guess I could just post a reminder in the general discussions thread.
-
Yeah when I saw it I was like Whoo who $25 a pack yippee!
-
It's under Buckeyebunnyhunter on youtube.
-
I know its labor intensive but if your doing a batch for yourself there is a video on youtube of someone who shoots the tail color first then takes the mandrel out cuts the tube off the mandrel leaving the tails intact on the mandrel and places it back in the mold and shoots the tube body, de-molds then dips for a thicker body.
-
So I guess if you don't look there no one will know I posted an item? So it won't show up under unread threads?
-
How does one know when something new is posted in the classifieds? Do you have to go there to check? or is there something I'm missing?

Interesting how a clear coat will take away the reflective effect.
-
That's how the Mirror paint system is to work it should be backed by a black (their backer) for it to perform as shown in the video, I don't suspect you'll achieve what's in that video but it will perform better with the backer that is certain, real mirrors have a backer as well. I wonder if there is a service that could electro plate lure blanks at a reasonable price?

This is a brand new never opened Iwata Eclipse HP-BS with wrench, hose, 1 bottle of paint (Blue) 1 bottle of AB cleaner, tube of lube and instruction manual. This was bought at a steep discount from a store who is discontinuing their AB line I am making a small profit from this sale, this AB sells for $140 all day long on the web. Paypal in the U.S. only shipped to your door with tracking and insurance. First PM starts the ball rolling if 1st request falls through 2nd, 3rd and so on. Sold a few now not many left don't miss out on a great deal! Currently have 4 on hand! Chris G2L

Sounds by your description that you're planning on painting baits that have been painted already. In any case yes you should scuff prime then paint. As far as clear coat there are loads of options but the most used are epoxies there is a thread going on right now on GST concrete sealer that guys are having success with so go there and read up it may be for you. As far as paints go the Createx line of acrylic paints are most common.

See I had a whole different experience, by taking them out then curing I seemed to get a better fit with the weed guard they seemed a little loose if I left them in and I would get that occasional sharp edge when pulled out that had to be dealt with.
-
No your absolutely right I got lost in the thread and was thinking of cleaning.
-
I'm sure I do have to look they may be on my old crashed pc or maybe the sd card on my camera lemme dig around for ya!

Well there Jig man I've added almost any color to the white and make many different colors I did a light crawfish orange with a watermelon was pretty nice of course if you add blue to the white then black and blue can't go wrong. What I did for inspiration was look at some of my productive skirt colors and matched a few of those as well.

Hum me neither must be a way in settings to turn on or off? -
Like ammonia I would stay away from vinegar as its an acid, if you buy a gallon of automotive windshield wash you'll have it covered many are ammonia free, I really want to try the Rain-Ex stuff but don't want to be the guinea pig my thinking is its got a really good surfactant quality once on your windshield water just beads right off I was thinking this would be good plus it might help with tip dry if the paint can't stick to the needle it can't build up thus no tip dry, right

That looks like a Jacob's baits mold check under crappie baits over 2" its called a slab wedge
-
You can start by clicking on the directory at the top right of the page I believe most on there.
-
Plain and simple you will have to try different vendors colorants to find the one you like I think none match each other and none use the same recipe i.e. drops per batch, It's a pain in the butt to follow some recipes as they may have 5 different brands of colorant it really comes down to your eyes perception of what watermelon should look like.
-
Yep I have Del's mold and I think it's a match when I put them next to each other
-
I haven't bought any in awhile but I got mine at lowes.

Ah the most famous loaded question on the forum, BH it has it's good points and bad one's like other plastisol's it really comes down to personal preference based on your cooking, injection/pouring methods. Its nice that it's in the bag prevents contamination but it did have some yellowing issues as of late. Best thing to do is call Do-It see if they can send you a sample, you may have to purchase something but within reason you may be able to work something out so you can test it.

Sorry had to take the opportunity for a laugh , you folks must speechless I'm a municipal employee and I feel for all those folks losing money in their pensions. Rayburn's right though that's a pretty easy fix although you will prolly spend more for the material than to just have someone do it for you.
-
If anybody was thinking of pulling the trigger on an AB if you have a local AC Moore they are liquidating all AB inventory, I just picked up an Iwata Eclipse BS for $49 they sell for $140 all day long on most internet sites.

Whatever you do don't get a local guy he might go bankrupt on ya
