Dick Nite's White Lure Paint As A Base Coat

Recommended Posts

I haven't used it. But if the lure is already sealed, why would you need anything more than a white color basecoat? Why not just use white acrylic paint? Dry it with a hair dryer and it's faster.

Five years into reading TU posts about sealing, waterproofing, basecoating, and priming, I still get confused by some of the questions and I think many new builders are more confused than I. The bottom line is you want to shoot paint onto a smooth non-porous surface. That means a "grain sealer" or a waterproofing sealer should be used to seal the wood before you paint colors. And before you shoot colors, you want a white background so the colors will be true and the wood grain and hardware will not show through your paint. That's the color basecoat. I don't see a need for a solvent based color basecoat over an already sealed bait.
