I Rock fish out of the Central Coast area, primarily out of Morro Bay. I make most of my own jigs as well. I airbrush vertical type jigs and top coat with Solarez, D2T or recently with KBS. They hold up fairly well as long as they aren't dragging along the rocks, but not as well as powder coat. I would not recommend airbrushing for jig heads as the rocks tear them up pretty quickly.
