Jmonty Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 I'm new to painting my own lures using a spray pen. I was wondering what kind of paint is most popular and what are the advantages and downfalls. I have read a lot of differing opinions and wanted to get the down low from an experienced source.

gone2long Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 I did a search for Spray pen what exactly is it? from the little I saw paint is out of the question seems to be of an ink thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmonty Posted August 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 Its a small airbrush I got from my dad who used to use it in his line of work. It uses compressed gas to blow a fine mist of paint on to a surface. I know I can use polyurethane based paint with it, I was just not sure if this would be best for a lure painting application.

gone2long Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 Well I can tell you that some airbrushes have a hard time spraying AB specific paint so you may need to upgrade if you were thinking of waterbased acrylics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
