airbrushextreme Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 Has anyone ever tried painting a hollow body vinyl frog with Vinyl lure and jig paint? I am thinking about it just have to buy some paint to try first I figured it should work fine because soft frogs are vinyl and the paint is for vinyl. I have used auto air for frogs but over a few hours hydrilla and milfoil pull the paint off even with a sealer but those few hours before the paint wears off have been very productive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toxicbaits Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 (edited) Have any pictures to share? no pics to share. Im no artist anyways, but the secret is in the mixing of the dye since it comes in a powder form, you control intensity of color. try it on a couple old frogs first... its doesnt take long to get the hang of it.

Wouldnt the dye leech out and spread? I know dyes for plastic worms does this and it wouldnt be feasible to paint a realistic pattern.

I know dyes for plastic worms does this and it wouldnt be feasible to paint a realistic pattern. the leeching in minimal if the dye isnt to concetrated.. i thought the same thing.. but after some trial and error it works.
