MuskyGary Posted September 12, 2015 Report Share Posted September 12, 2015 When you take some of the plastic baits out of the bag; they are oiley. Should I clean or just wipe them down before painting. (Using I spike It CO2) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apdriver Posted September 12, 2015 Report Share Posted September 12, 2015 I haven't delved into the paints but a quick call to Bruce Mcelroy at spike it will answer all your questions from an expert. He's very helpful in my experience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MuskyGary Posted September 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 I e-mailed I Spike It and they said to wipe the baits down with acetone. So that's what I will try. Thanks guys for reminding me to call them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBuff Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 Word to the wise..wipe off the excess (paper towel) then fill a bowl with warm water and dish soap. The dish soap will not react to the plastic and is made to remove oil. Rinse with warm water towel off and let air dry. I tried acetone once and I could feel the plastic get warm and soft.

smallmouthaholic Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 Simply roll them in paper towels to remove the excess oil- simple,fast and efficient. Rinse the storage bags w/ hot,soapy water and dry the inside w/ a folded paper and a flat putty knife. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
