Thanks Good Fishing.

Does anybody know what kind of black paint this is?I love the metallic sparkle look in the black and wondering how this is achieved. Thanks in advance.

I'm down a rabbit hole now guys haha, but thanks for the help. BobP I'm really happy with the glow powder I bought, it shines brighter 45 mins in a dark closet. It's really coarse and you're right it's the way to go. I just need to apply it smoothly now. Kasilo, I'm looking at getting a Badger to apply the powder paint. I'll keep you posted on the results. My buddy got a tank of a chinook today on one I made so I'm getting there. I messed up putting the scale tape on and it looked terrible but turns out the fish don't care. I think he bit it because of the glow! I wish I could ask.

Thanks BobP! Is there a brand/type of acrylic glow paint you recommend?

Do any of you have experience running the glow powder with clear Createx through an airbrush? I know it's been discussed on the forum. I bought 50 micron glow powder so it's super coarse. I read somewhere 30 micron will go through an airbrush. Any thoughts?

Thanks guys! The white base coat makes a big difference. I found a brand of epoxy that cures slower and applies alot easier. NowI just have to make sure it's durable enough to stand up to salmon teeth.

I really appreciate all the info on the forum...I'm new here. I live in the PNW and want to figure out a way to get lasting glow powder onto a salmon spoon. I've tried mixing glow powder into and epoxy and nail polish, however the powder clumps up and won't apply properly. I intentionally bought a coarse grained glow powder for extra glow power so I don't think it will go through an air brush. I'll attach a pic of what I want to create for reference. Any help is appreciated.
