Predator Bass Baits Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 Anyone figure out what paint is needed to paint soft plastics like a tail from a swimbait ? Or will any paint work as long as you dip the tail in clear plastiso ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassn1 Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 I made my own with pvc pipe glue and Tempra powder paint. Thin it with asetone or MEK and shoot it with the airbrush. Drys real fast and makes a mess out of your airbrush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to find Powder Tempra paint in fish catching colors. If you could find a fine powdered pigment, it should work OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
