  5. You should try craft paint.I use one called Craftsmart premium satin acrylic paint got it at Michaels, it will take heat to 350 degrees, powder paint jig heads as usual then apply the eye with nail let dry then apply the pupil (different color) then put jigs in oven to bake I do mine 360 degrees for 20 min.The acrylic paint melts into the head and can't scratch off.
  6. I use a craft paint called craftsmart (michaels sells it)after powder painting my jigs I use craftsmart to put the 2 color eyes on.You can put it in the toaster oven 350 degrees for 20 min,it doesn't run and seems to melt into the powder paint you cant scratch it off.
