fishnart Posted December 2, 2014 Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 I think this is the right category. Do any of you know the best way to paint metal spoons? And will DC2 stick to metal and will it last? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted December 2, 2014 Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 I have powder painted many spoons and it looks very nice and lasts. Devcon 2 Ton, works well on the face of the spoon. It will however pull away from any sharp edges. So if you are going to paint the spoon surface, you can dull the finish with steel wool, and then make sure the edges on the finished side are deburred as well. This will give you a consistent clear finish edge to edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnart Posted December 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 Thanks Cadman, what I was thinking was getting some primer maybe then some metal paint to put a base boat on a spoon. Then paint with my acrylics, and then finish it off with Devcon...what'cha think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted December 2, 2014 Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 You also can buy white etching primer, which will grip better to metal after you steel wool it. The etching primer is excellent and it being white makes for a good base for all colors.. It is a spray on. Once dry, you can put on your acrylic paint and then clearcoat. Note: Adding acrylic paint and Devcon 2 Ton will increase the weight of your spoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnart Posted December 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 That sounds great. Never heard of etching primer, where do you get that? Thanks for the help sir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted December 2, 2014 Report Share Posted December 2, 2014 It's a large spray can. I bought mine at an auto parts store, like NAPA. You can get either white or gray color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plunc Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 (edited) Have been fairly happy with tapping powder on a heated blank using a small brush & a coat of devcon (or 2). If the devcon starts giving way, I just touch it up before next use, & it seems ok. Overall it seems to hold up a little better than the factory finish (acme) that originally came on them. That said, Im sure theres better ways, My coho & king creations: Edited December 19, 2014 by plunc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
