He is temporarily closed due to some family issues.

John does great work and makes all of his own eyes. Yes you will be paying more, but they are top notch.
-
I use powderless gloves. Just make sure you do some fact checking that it is fully cured in 10 mins.
-
You are correct, make sure you read the instructions on the full cure time. But washing the bait will help remove anything that comes to the surface.
-
Wear rubber gloves, make sure the bait is clean, and dont get grease or oils from your hands on the bait. that will help. Most guys that use epoxy clears will put them on a bait turner to keep the epoxy from running.
-
I suggest it if you want proper paint adhesion. I have heard of people spraying primer into silicon molds before they pour them but I have not tried it yet.
-
Let them sit the full cure time, then wash with Dawn dish soap to get any release agent off of them. Use a high grade primer.
-
I would suggest waiting for the full cure. Wash the bait with Dawn dish soap and let dry. there can still be some air or release from the resin causing issues on the paint.

Question About Selling Custom Painted Cranks
DingerBaits replied to jbrandon47's topic in Hard Baits
I don't paint anything custom unless payment has been sent unless it is a friend or one of my regular customers. -
Looking at that link, you would be ordering from Shelts...
-
I do have them, they are just discounted in my scratch and dent section... Heavily discounted...
-
Are you letting your fast epoxy completely cure before clearing the bait?
-
I have them, just a few issues with some bills being glued correctly. It was from a company I originally made the molds with and they have started to slack in their quality.
-
You can get them unpainted from Cabelas or Bass Pro online, but you are still paying the premium since it is a real Strike King
-
Just carved a pretty slick looking bait out of PVC and looking for suggestions on if i need to seal it before I make a mold out of it. It seems like any type of mold would stick to it due to its porous nature. Any suggestions would be great.
-
Bill... the popper is on backwards nice looking bait -
Thanks, I appreciate the input
-
I did see that the de-mold time was a lot lower and that is what got me leaning towards the Alumilite. I guess my biggest concern is with the strength of where the pin goes through my piano style hinges.
-
Does any one have any insight on which is better? Looking at the different properties, both seem good, but I would like a little input. Thanks
-
You could get a pressure pot to get rid of the bubbles during the casting process.
-
I wouldn't be opposed to this. I think if anything it would better the quality of product that we supply to the consumer.

on the website right now

Looks like a transparent forest green
-
Good thing to know. Havent tried that. Sounds similar to what some Concrete sealers do as a clear coat
-
you can use Etex, dries slower than Devcon if you are looking to stick with a epoxy coat. KBS does have some fumes, but it is what I use on my bass baits
