clemmy Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 Hey all, I'm trying to design a jig for redfish, but I want a shiny gold head on it...Has anyone done any research into the cost of plating, or the cost of other finishes? My ideas so far that might be possible: 1)actual gold plating--very expensive 2)home gold plating via caswell--also expensive 3)gold powder paint-how shiny is it? 4)gold glitter coated with epoxy-not the look I'd like but it is shiny 5)blade dip? how durable? Anyone else faced this choice yet and have any experience Thanks All! Clemmy Tampa, FL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickerel Pete Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 CSI #48 Gold Transparent looks pretty good over a nice bright lead head. You can still add a bit of gold glitter to that for more sparkle. Garry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
