Color Question

[toddshirk44]

Who makes the best selection of fluorescent colors for airbrushing spinner blades? What's the best application water base or laquor?

Todd,

I am a hobby builder, so this applies to small stuff.

I use Sally Hansen Hard as Nails clear, and add the same flake I use for soft plastics, or I use their In The Spotlight, which has mylar bits in it and adds an insane amount of flash to spinnerbait blades and crankbaits.

I suggest that what you want is a super thin coat, so a lacquer based is best, but requires the most breathing protection.

 

Still, you get excellent results from water based but adding the clear coat adds weight to the blade as well.  Wicked is made by Createx and they make some excellent fluorescent and candy colors.
