Flaswimbaiter Posted May 9, 2024 Report Share Posted May 9, 2024 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, 2024 Report Share Posted June 28, 2024 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, 2024 Report Share Posted July 17, 2024 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...
