Can it be paint is reacting to the lead little frustrated want to see others experience, I've been painting for 10 years so not a novice but missing something may have to clearcoat before painting any help will be appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted November 7, 2022 Report Share Posted November 7, 2022 Did you try etching primer before painting? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tukta Posted November 7, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2022 Yup I did white powder paint vinyl, killz which stops stains on walls and ceiling as you can tell getting a little desperate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dink Master Posted November 7, 2022 Report Share Posted November 7, 2022 What is created paint? Heat your jigs with a Blow Dryer before you airbrush the primer on. (white paint) Heat before additional colors. I live in Southern California, heating my jigs before airbrushing helps a lot. . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tukta Posted November 7, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2022 Dink createx paint is an acrylic paint mostly used for airbrush you might be on to something will warm jigs up also have 10 that I dipped into glade floor polish. I paint fish lures with no problems this is crazy I spray a light coat to give it (tooth). I do 4 coats it's like paint is beading and running. I know I could powder paint but easier to layer 4 colors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dink Master Posted November 7, 2022 Report Share Posted November 7, 2022 Okay, I used Createx paints on the jigs in the photo. Try some heat before painting, good luck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's something in the Rustoleum Self Etching Primer that, as it says, etches the surface so my Createx paints bind really well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tukta Posted November 9, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2022 OK I figured the problem out got rid of primer bought a new can of white. Since not having problem 2 of colors didn't change them but changed the color I was having problem with everything went fine so must have been a problem with the paint. Just finished a 100 jig run with no problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
