charkins Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 I can paint small dots by using head of finishing nail. I need to paint a fairly large red dot on a Number 7 Indianna Blade. Anyone got any ideas? Thanks Cal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheesehead Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 How big of a dot? I've used a new pencil eraser to paint dots in the past. another option is to hole punch a piece of stencil paper and spray your dots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackllbass Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Cal, Get a dowell rod the size of eye you want and start painting. Later<>< <>< <>< Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtrs5kprs Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Pencil erasers are the deal for dots. Pick up some regular old #2's and also some "huskies", use a hand pencil sharpener & sandpaper to shape the erasers as needed. I use them for all my "dots & spots"...eyes, shad spots.

Mr B Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 I'll third the vote for the pencil eraser. Use a regular pencil for large dote and the small eraser from an automatic pencil for small ones. Mr B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwendt1978 Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Use the end of a drill bit. Then you can fine tune the size of the dots by selecting the next size up or down. I own the cheapest set on the planet for this. So cheap they can't even drill into wood! But works great for lures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
