markw Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 I have a family friend that is retiring, and someone asked me to build him a custom Double 10 Spinnerbait for his muskie fishing. I'd like to put a company logo on the spinner blades, and I was wondering if anyone has a trick that they would be willing to share as to how that can be done? One thought would be to print on a photo paper and epoxy it to the blade. Will that work? Any thoughts or tips? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markw Posted May 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 Once again, I should have just searched through Cadmans posts before I ask a question!! I just found his Sports Spinnerbait posting that happens to solve my exact problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am guessing a water transfer decal but would like to see how it is done. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markw Posted May 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 Cadman, When you coat your blades with etex, do you just coat one side and lay them flat to dry? Or do you coat both sides and put them on a rotating dryer of some kind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I lay it flat on a raised block, so your blade doesn't stick to anything along the edges. I have tried to do both sides one at a time. Coat one side let it fulll dry and then coat the other side. The problem is that on the convex side the etex will want to run to the middle and pool there. I have tried to put it on really thin and it still pools. So I stopped coating the inside of the blades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgecrusher Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 Sorry to bring up an old thread, but since time has passed I thought it would be worth asking the question as to how the blades went durability wise? Did the etex provide sufficient long term protection? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
