frithy Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 Hey guys. Just wondering if anyone on here uses createx colours on their spinnerbaits. On the createx website they stipulate that they are suitable for use on aluminiums, metals etc. However on the two retail websites I have been on they say you cant apply them to metals? I'm only reffering to the airbrush colours (opaque, transparent etc) and not the wicked and auto products. Cheers Frithy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtoolsniper Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 I repaint old steel and brass Daredevle spoons all the time using createx paints. The top coat is what protects the paint. In the end after a few Pike they begin to get scratched up by the teeth. The point is to create a lure pattern that works and the way I see it if you don't have teeth marks you ain't catching fish!

andy1976 Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 You might consider first base coating with self etching primer. Its designed to make paint stick to metal. Or base powder coat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
