Flaswimbaiter Posted May 9 Report Share Posted May 9 I was out in the garage repainting some jig heads and noticed I had some chrome spray paint. I put a dark gray primer on the jig and cover it with a chrome and it looks beautiful. Do you think I can prime one of my Baits, paint the base white and black and then do the scales with this chrome spray paint? Do you think the oil and the water-based paints will get along? And do you think after I clearcoat it that it will dull the chrome? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Posted June 28 Report Share Posted June 28 You can usually paint water based paints over enamel/lacquer based paints after they are fully dry but not the other way around. ..Nathan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt mike Posted July 17 Report Share Posted July 17 No. I have had bad luck with this approach. Maybe some people can make it work, but why risk it? specifically, I’ve sprayed a rattle can silver on a bait. Days later sprayed transparent createx over it. looked fine but it scratched off super easy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
