I din't have any issues with it either this weekend and the humidity was around 90%.

How much should I thin KBS when I use it in humid conditions? I need to clear a few baits this weekend but the humidity is supposed to be 80% and up this weekend. I know the product has a warning about using in humid conditions and the chance of surface bubbles. Is there anything I can do to prevent them from happening? (other than waiting for better conditions ) I already thin KBS around 15% for dipping baits.

Mark, I'll let some of the excess go back into the jar. I set the jar under the bait while I put a wire in the hook hanger. Then I move to the next bait.

KBS is thinner than the epoxies you mentioned. Like AZ I dip my baits and recommend multiple coatings. I do not use a lure turner, I just dip and hang.

A couple of 3/8oz spinnerbaits with a custom wire size. -

Very good job on all of them!

Welcome and a good idea!

Looks good! -
If you don't have much experience with machining or CAD/CAM you should look into some remedial classes first. Another thing you could look into is a 3D printer. Then you could print the molds or the masters for making the molds. The software I would check into is Fusion360.

Looks good! I was going to try a citrus shad color on my next batch of baits.

Thank you for the pointers Chuck. I am going to keep working on it. I went the stencil route on my last set of baits. -
I've been dipping a few baits and I just put a wire through the hook hanger and the excess KBS runs down the wire and keeps the hook hanger fairly open.

I used the dealer finder on the KBS diamond coatings website to see who was the local dealers. I did have to call a few to find out how had it in stock, but I picked up my small can at a local NAPA autoparts store. I have not tested it for an interaction with plastic worms yet.

I have not been sanding in between coats. I have been waiting about 2 hours in between the first and second coats.

Praying for the officers and their families.

Looks good and the solid edge around the outside will give it more strength and a place to have clamping options.
