fishnart Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 Has anyone ever tried using artist pastels, chaulk form and/or oil, on a bait and then used epoxy? Wonder if all would be ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had to choose go with the oils. You can work them around with turpentine so they smear or blead. The chalk is just that chalk. It is going to need a good tooth and will flake easily. Good Luck!

.dsaavedra. Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 epoxy won't stick to oil. thats why epoxy topcoats fisheye so much, because oils from fingerprints repel the epoxy and leave a bare spot, aka fisheye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
