bbf Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 I have a couple of Sebile swimbaits I want to repaint. I use and currently have the old DN top coat. Well how do I top coat these lures w/ DN and not get it in the hinges and mess up the swimming action? Any help appreciated. Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spoonbender Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 I've used petroleum jelly as a release agent on hinges and eyes, clean it out after the epoxy clears. Just be very careful where you apply it, will leave nasty fisheye's in the clear coat wherever there's a trace. It can be washed off with hot soapy water when all's done.

RayburnGuy Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 You might try some stuff called "Liquid Frisket". I've bought some at my local Hobby Lobby. It's sort of a liquid rubber type of stuff that you can apply to areas that you want to keep clean. After application it dries to a rubbery texture that can be easily peeled off when your done. You can do an online search for it and read up on it's uses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
