bassfhermn Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 I just got the mold and I poured a few up but what is everbody using to paint the lead part of the lure ? I would like to use powder paint but I am willing to try other paint and also how does everbody hold the eyes on super glue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatman Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 I usually use regular paint and they seal it with two part epoxy and same for the eyes. There's a few of the guys that I believe use fluid beds but I haven't tried it yet myself. Fatman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 (edited) I mainly use powder paint. Then glue in weed guards if needed. Then put on eyes. If you put on eyes you should clear coat the jig to keep the eyes from falling off. I also use a fluid bed for one color applications.

bassfhermn Posted October 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 is there anyway to keep the powder paint of of the blade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Sorry I didn't read that these were blade baits. So naturally there are no weed guards. Yes you can use high temp tape to cover the rest. I assume you are using the chrome or silver blades? PM me your e-mail and I can show you some pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
