Snax Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Hi folks, Has anyone sprayed water based paints over top of Krylon Fusion? Specifically I use Auto Air paints which can adhere to some plastics already but I want the best adhesion possible. If so, any tips or tricks I should know about? I did call Krylon but the young fellow I spoke to didn't seem to believe that other paints would stick to it. I think he was new and didn't know what he was talking about though. I use the probionate plastic dip method of sealing my baits so I want to use the White Krylon Fusion as the primer coats. Thanks in advance!

Spike-A-Pike Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Snax, I ran a search on Krylon Fusion and found this thread that discussed the very subject. Look at #22 by fatfingers. Sound like you can any paint as long as you clear it... See what you think? http://www.tackleunderground.com/forum/showthread.php?t=11067&highlight=Krylon+Fusion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

338muskie Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 2 nights ago I used white createx paint for primer over my sand slealer and painted over it last night with a can krylon for my base color and it looked like it worked for that. I'm new to this paint lure stuff but thats my Snak. But I see your painting work is much bettter then my skill. Thanks 338Muskie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjbass Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Snax, I have used Krylon Fusion over the plastic dip and never had a problem with adhesion. Worked great. Rod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lure--Prof Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Snax,I have used Krylon Fusion over the plastic dip and never had a problem with adhesion. Worked great. Rod Rod, I think Snax is asking how using water base paints on top of the Fusion works. Dean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I'm curious as to how waterbased paints will adhere to the Fusion paint. I know it adheres well to most other paints but i wasn't sure if Krylon Fusion would cause any issues.

rjbass Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Snax, OK, sorry for the confusion....I use Auto Air paint and I think you do also. Have had no problems with this combination..... Rod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

altimas Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 I use the regular Createx Airbrush paints ontop of the Krylon Fusion in Satin White and it works great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoodaddy Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Snax I also use the Krylon over Prop and after sanding lightly for adhesion purposes spray Createx. My concern was the same as you but, have'nt experienced any problems with it yet and I've been using it for months now. It just seemed to make sense.....plastic sealer.......plastic bonding primer.............DUH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
