defish Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Has anyone used this for powder coating lures? It's supposed to be stable to 400 degrees and could be useful for powder painting some multicolor details. http://allpowderpaints.com/High-Temp-Masking-Tape_c24.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tubetragger Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 I haven't used that particular tape but have used regular painters tape to cover up hook eyes while powder painting with a heat gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbrinlee Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 I use Kapton tape for high temp work... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtticaFish Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 Never used that brand but have used some high temp tape intended for holding iron-on lettering in place under a heat press. Think it came from the Stahls company. Taped it on to spinner blades and powder painted them just fine. Pulled the tape off and hung to cure.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defish Posted January 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Thanks for the replies. Tubetragger: You said you use regular painter's tape on hook eyes. Do you think it would be ok on lure bodies, or would it probably leave some residue? tbrinlee: The Kapton tape has impressive specs - I'll look into getting some of that. AtticaFish: I like the iron-on-tape stencil. It look like it's reusable too. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
