Matt M Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 I was recently given a handful of old spinnerbaits. The skirts are shot and the jig heads need to be repainted. Is there a secret to removing the old paint prior to priming and painting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jig Man Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 I'd get some paint stripper, clean then powder coat if I wanted to remove the paint. On mine, I just heat with a heat gun then recoat with powder paint over the old paint. I don't bake them but the paint lasts a long time.

Matt M Posted August 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Thanks Jig Man. Paint Stripper did the job with a little help from a wire brush. I don't have the gear to powder coat. I have been making crank baits for about a year now. I am planning to use those techniques to revitalize these old spinners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
