BassAssault Posted November 29, 2008 Report Share Posted November 29, 2008 Tommac, War Eagle Lures spinnerbaits are plated, you can get this done at Spectrum in Isle, MN. Their phone number is 320-676-3656. I have talked to them in the past, there are mins that need to be met before they will do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted November 30, 2008 Report Share Posted November 30, 2008 (edited) Tommac, Bassassault is correct, plating I believe; around here is $50 to $75 lot charge. Also you can get powder paint, see my thread "Some Custom Colors" about three pages down. All that powder paint was custom made, if I add gold glitter to the top coat, that jig would sparkle. You can also get custom powder paint metallic powder. It is available. Rough guess on 1 lb of powder is about $100. Chemists make good money, and you have to know one, that will be willing to do that for you. Finally you can air brush it with some custom metallic copper paint. I know it’s done, I don’t know the cost, but automotive lacquer paints in metallic are expensive.
