SNOWMAN CUSTOM BAITS

Yes sir I’m happy with the results

Thanks guys I'll show him the picks and let him make the choice. I think I have some chestnut brown tabs some where in all this mess.

Anyone have a source for some burgundy skirt tabs? Don't ask me why but a customer wants a burgundy spinnerbait.

I use polytranspar wet look competition gloss laquer. You can get it in a spray can or for your airbrush. You can get it from taxidermy supply store.

I had to stop using AC1315. Something in it messes with my head. I tried using it outside with a fan I even bought a respirator and used goggles and it still burns my eyes and gives me a headache so it's in the garbage with that and back to auto clear and D2T.

Ok thanks

What grit glass beads are you using?

I got mine at lowes. Its on the back wall with the other trim boards

mine is on 1/2" centers

I get 100% pure scrap lead for free but it's pretty dirty

I used nason auto clear from orielys it's inexpensive. Mark I have sprayed laquer for years without a respirator with zero problems and the concert sealer is worse one me than the laquer. I had to buy a respirator to use the concrete sealer and it still burns my eyes I guess I'm going to have to get a full face respirator. I'm not saying you don't need a respirator to spray laquer and I may die tomorrow but it has never bothered me but the concert sealer bothers me. I guess everyone is different.

I do

i just diped my first bait and wow. I painted this bait a few monts ago and diped yesterday and it still looked great last night so maybe I won't have any problems with the laquer paint reacting.

I use lacquer paints so I don't have to heat set my paint. I have a heat gun so I will try to give a little heat to the sealer as it cures.
