southernmost Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 I've been trying to get a bright chartreuse tail dip on my dark soft plastics for a while (tried base coating with white), but just can't seem to make it work very well. I know it can be done, because Kelly Wiggler Lures does it perfectly (see attached). They have been chartreuse dipping dark colors for forever. Anyone know how/what they do/use to get such a good tail dip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a difference in the vpi paint and the solvent based paint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William DeMent Posted February 15, 2019 Report Share Posted February 15, 2019 Hi Frank I was told by Bruce that it the same paint just uncut more of a solid Concentrate version . VPI needs to be cut with thinners 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
