Landry Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 Nice work. I airbrush muskie sized softbaits. Love the look. Way better than laminate or layered colors. I use Lureworks SB coat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm interested in trying it, but not in investing in a whole new system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the same airbrush for createx and this paint, its a H&S evolution airbrush with no problems, i use both kind of paints strait out of the bottle (sometimes i have to increase the psi to 50, but thats when i dont deep clean the airbrush) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anglinarcher Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 Now for the real question, does it stick, does it stay on the lure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy1976 Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 It sticks really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polypterus Posted November 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 Hi Anglinarcher, You have tu heath set between layers and use a top coat or dip the bait in hot plastisol after you finish painting it. I like to dip the bait because it gives this kind of 3D effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Landry Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 If I was making smaller baits I would use the paint he is using and then dip in thin plastisol as they shine a little more than the clear coat I use BUT dipping a 10" lure would be a hassle with a lure this size. His baits look incredible!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anglinarcher Posted November 8, 2017 Report Share Posted November 8, 2017 Look forward to trying it in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleT Posted November 9, 2017 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 I use the CoLure Coat paint and love it. Its thick but seems to spray good with a little more air. Once painted, hit it with a coat of SB Clear and you are good to go. I find it to be very durable as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
