I had the same issues as you when I started. Do yourself a favor and read all you can. I bought the teflon base pins from lurepartsonline.com. Pour your jigs with teflon pins in. Then powder paint with teflon pins in. Cook paint without the pins and finally epoxy the weedguards in with devcon 30 minute epoxy.
Super glue is what turns white....and no 5 minute it turns yellow.
