Styrofoam, from hot cups. They are easy to cut, cheap, but not durable. I also use table top cover made from soft plastic, jugs that are made of clear plastic, ant even regular paper.

I will definitively try that.

Just on same topic (airbrush clogging). I have Master G22 after 20 minutes thinned Createx spraying the airbrush clogged and then messed up everything that I have painted before. I have tried 3 more times before giving up. Can this clogging be the result of the cheap airbrush or something else. I am using Createx AUTO colors, thinned with water and floor finish. I have cleaned the airbrush with alcohol 70%, with back and forward action. I am shooting under 20 - 10 psi with tank. Should I change the airbrush or just practice more.... Thank you.. Steve

May be it is not me after all.....

Good morning all, I have got yet another failure last night painting hell hound. I have used masking tape to out line the painting area and some how paint leaked under the tape. I have used Createx diluted with water and Pledge with future (by the way great idea to use Pledge). After each session I would blow dry it. Is there a possibility that the blow dryer is pushing paint under the tape or should I use some other method to out line the painting area? THX Steve

I've used Etex on my spinner's heads successfully, however I did wait until Etex would start to set before application. For the lures top coat I have build a drying wheel. It is very easy, get regular rotisserie something like that: Ace Trading-Grill ACC 2 8005621 Deluxe Rotisserie 36" Basically, if you have a motor that does around 6 rpm and a rod it should be easy. Also I have used Radio Shack alligator clams to hold the lure in place.

Thank you very much for the video provided. As a rookie it is very helpful to see how the different things are done, at least for me. Beautiful job. Thank you -
I have tried to use Super Glue and Head Cement, just to get eyes on to the powder painted surface. Super Glue work just fine, but Head Cement turned glued area in yellow for some reason. I am covering my spinner baits and will cover jig in a layer of Envirotex. The reason for that, is after one trip all my powder painted spinners and jigs are "destroyed" by hitting underwater the rocks. Other wise use epoxy.

Thank you all for suggestions. Will try them all.

Thank you, I will definitely try that.

Iwata hands down. It will cost more, generally, but it is great piece of equipment.

Hello everyone, I have tried to use cardboard for stencil and it didn't worked out well. After first use with Createx stencil got wet and became unusable. Can some one help me to pick right material for the stencils and how to make the cuts? I used the modeling knife and don't think that everyone uses that to cut out stencils, since it is too much trouble. Also, is there a store to buy already made stencils? Thank you very much for your help. Stev0

I went with this set: http://cgi.ebay.com/MULTI-PURPOSE-AIRBRUSH-KIT-w-Compressor-Createx-Paint_W0QQitemZ220589236365QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item335c24a08d It is a little more, but you will get everything to get started with air brushing. Also, get rotisserie ( they are around $22 from Amazon); that will be useful for bait drying wheel after top or bottom coating. The tackle making web site has some stencils to print out. These are really useful. www.tacklemaking.com Good luck.

Thank you very much. This is great piece of info. Since I am new to airbrushing.
-
Thank you. Oh, by the way, the regular working pressure should be around 30 psi for Createx thinned paint?

Hi all, I have a question regarding Master G22 Double action airbrush. I am trying to get different spray patters and having a problem with adjusting the paint flow to hair line thin. Any help would be appreciated.
