benton B Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 From the look and thickness of the paint on the old baits, I would guess those were dipped. Maybe mix pearl powder with latex paint. Old Bagley baits are the only ones I've seen with that thick pearl white paint as a undercoat. By the way I'm really just guessing here. Createx auto air has the best pearl white imho, it's thicker than any of the other brands I've tried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
