mark poulson Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Dumb question, but it's been a while since I last powder painted a bunch of jig heads for myself. I heat the heads with a torch, dip them in the paint, and then hang them in an old toaster oven to "cure". But I can't remember what temp. I set the toaster oven at, or for how long. Help!

mark poulson Posted June 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 I found my answer, 350 for fifteen minutes, at Janns. Thanks anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walleye warrior Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 i bake mine in the toaster oven for 20 minutes @350* , then i dip them and bake them again for another 20 minutes. it takes a little more time but the results are great.

mark poulson Posted June 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 walleye warrior, First of all, thanks for the info. That confirms what I read at Jann's. Second, do you find double dipping makes the paint job stronger? I have to confess that I usually lose a jig before the powder coat comes off, and, if it chips, I touch it up with a sharpie.

walleye warrior Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 i don't know if it makes the finish any stronger but with alot of the darker colors like purple,violet and blue it gives better coverage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
