Jig Man Posted September 19, 2020 Report Share Posted September 19, 2020 There are a couple of colors that I like on spinnerbait heads that I can’t do with powder ( chrome and shiny gold). I can’t get it to last any time. I have tried clear nail polish but it just smears the paint. I base paint with white. Is there an epoxy or other substance that I can use to get a hard finish? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted September 19, 2020 Report Share Posted September 19, 2020 I've always Used Devcon 2 Ton (D2T) for any of my customers that want a more durable finish, and I have never had any complaints. However, if you are doing this over all white jig and you want the jig color to pop, then I would suggest E-tex, because D2T has a slight amber tint to it: | D2T= very durable but has a tint E-tex= Whites are bright whit but not as hard as D2T Personally, I don't let the slight tint in D2T to bother me on the jigs I fish.

Jig Man Posted September 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2020 Thanks Ted. I coated 3 spinnerbait heads and am letting them setup. I’ll blade and skirt them, go to the lake and see how they do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might try spraying a water-based clear coat over the spray paint, and then try the nail polish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
