mark poulson Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 This is something I just tried, and it worked. I added some of my soft plastic violet hilite to some Createx transparent base, and shot it over a jerkbait repaint with my .035 Iwata airbrush. It shot perfectly, and, through multiple coats, I was able to get a really need effect that shows at some angles, but not at others. I'm sure other hilite powders will work, too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benton B Posted January 4, 2019 Report Share Posted January 4, 2019 I've mixed hilite powders with transparent base and it sprays well. You just have to play with base coats to see what gives the best effect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted January 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2019 (edited) Here's a picture of the bait I repainted, trying to match the Strike King version of Table Rock Shad. I am no artist, but it looks close. The shimmer from the hilite doesn't show in the pic. Edited January 4, 2019 by mark poulson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
