wingnut Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 Found some Info using the search but I still need to ask. Does Spraying powder paint work well for multi-colors on spoons, spinner blades and lead head jigs. What are the options for srayguns and which ones can be used for finer detail. I don't think spraying powder will come close to the detail of an airbrush but would like to know if there is a unit that could be adjusted for finer work.

airbrushextreme Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 Have you tried powder water from columbia coatings I have never been any good with powder paint until I found this I can do multi color jigheads splatter colors and I even painted some very thin on spinnerbait blades it really works and you can do superfine detail without airbrush and laquer or epoxy coatings afterwards just bake in the oven 350degrees for 15-20 and its bullet proof I bought some powder from them also and its much better than cs coatings and you can get any kind of colors not just the basics anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long does it take to dry before you can handle your piece to set it up for baking? Thanks, Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airbrushextreme Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 I use the site for info just like every one else does I learn a lot by reading posts on here also CADMAN made me decide to try powder coating again just by talking about columbia coatings I placed an order that day and tried it. I like it a lot better than the cs coatings or the jig armor from fishingskirts.com I never powder coated much before that because I couldnt get it to work right I am no expert by any means but I have enough 4oz bottles to start a jig factory I have done jigs spinner blades jigging spoons and some flutter spoons with great detail I will post some pics when I get my camera up and running again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After watching the videos on spraying powder paint, I think I'll get the powder paint airbrush. Looks like it will work fine on spoons and blades. Has anyone Tried to modify the airbrush to spray thinner lines. I haven't seen any diferent sized orifices for sale to change the spray pattern.

Has anyone Tried to modify the airbrush to spray thinner lines. I haven't seen any diferent sized orifices for sale to change the spray pattern. I have a powder airbrush from CSI and have never tried to restrict the orifice for a finer line but have had good luck using a plastic worm inflator (the one with the little needle) filled with powder. Depending on how close to the lure you hold it and how fast you move it, makes a much finer, crisper line than the airbrush. Make sure you pull the needle out of the blower bottle and reverse it so the squared off end is doing the dispensing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orionn1 Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 How do you tell what the colors really look like from columbia coatings. There swatches are just kind of generic. Did you just take a guess? I am looking for I guess your standard colors , Red ,orange, white, yellow, etc? I would like to try their illusion colors and flourescent too but they don't really show. regards robery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airbrushextreme Posted November 26, 2010 Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 their colors are kind of self explanatory the flourescents are great and the illusion colors are great I use the copper ,candy yellow and lollipop red over chrome or gold blades I use the texture and elegant colors the metallic chrome and gold are great for jigs as well as lead jigging spoons the iwata eclipse is the the hp-bcs standard from bear air Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupid Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 I'm new to this site. And I'm tired of paying top dollar for spoons that paint comes off after one season (No Names). And decided to start doing my own painting after some research this year. I've started useing powder coat paint but not happy with some of the finished items. Over spray and want finer lines. (airbrush extreme) I'm interested in the water powder paint. Never airbrushed before....... there go the name stupid. Is there a ratio you can use for 1/2 oz color cup for the viscosity of thin createx ? And with the powder coat paint you have to preheat the spoon prior to painting. Do you still have to pre heat the spoon with the water powder paint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
