SugarHillBaits Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 I was wondering if you can use envirotex on soft plastic or will it eat the plastic up I am painting some BBZ type baits and was curios if I can put small thin coat on the plastic tail or just leave it alone?

mark poulson Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 (edited) I would guess that it would just not bond and peel off, because it cures out much more rigid than soft plastic. Even though Etex is "flexible" it isn't made for soft surfaces. It is meant as a protection for hard surfaces that expand and contract, like bar and table tops. Etex has great technical support. Call them and ask your questions. I've found I can color the tail of a BBZ lure with solvent-based sharpies, and that will hold for a while, but it needs to be redone pretty often. Here's a BBZ bait I redid a while ago: http://www.tackleunderground.com/community/gallery/image/11500-six-inch-spro-trout-repaint/ Edited October 8, 2015 by mark poulson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
