spoonpluggergino Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 I tried to PM Hazmail but PM will not go through. My Question : How the paint is applied to the bait, Iam thinking maybe with an eye dropper, dropping drips of paint on the bait surface Gino Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayburnGuy Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) Gino I remember reading Pete's tutorial some time ago and I think he misted the lure with water from a spray bottle which will leave small water droplets on the bait. Paint is then sprayed with the airbrush over the water droplets. I believe he then used a hair dryer to slowly dry everything making sure to keep the hair dryer back far enough that it doesn't blow the drops of water around. Or he could have placed it under a heat lamp or some other low temp heat source. That's the part I'm having the most trouble remembering. Hope this helps.

Jdeee Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) Gino I found the post that Hazmail explains how he gets the effect http://www.tackleunderground.com/community/index.php?/topic/2594-hard-bait-cookbook/page-2?hl=%2Bnemo+%2Bblob#entry79013 Hope this helps Jeff Edited January 26, 2013 by Jdeee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayburnGuy Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 I went back and read Pete's tutorial after Jeff posted the link and saw my description was wrong. What I described might have been on YouTube or some other airbrushing site I had visited. Hope I didn't cause any confusion for you Gino. My memory isn't what it used to be.

hazmail Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 (edited) Just read this Gino--as it says, just pick up your paint with a stick or 'Q tip' tubes are good, depends on your bait size- also make sure your base colour / undercoat is 'matte', the paint won't run as much as it would on gloss - takes a while to do. Have fun. Pete Edited February 1, 2013 by hazmail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
