It does seem that painting over the glow would negate the effect of the glow.Maybe mixing it in with a color is the way to go,as AZfisher suggested.
-
If you apply the glow under the paint do you get the same effect ?
-
Has anyone used this by chance? Method of application and does it dry clear ? I assume it is applied after paint but before clear coat ? Thanks for any help on this.
-
Thanks MonteSS.

I was just looking through the hard baits gallery and have to say that some of you guys out there are absolutely exceptional at painting these baits!!
-
I see some baits with this this pattern and am wondering how it is done.I would post a pic but really don't know how.It looks as if they paint their wanted pattern and then over shoot the whole bait to get a mottled apearance.The only way I can think of is to use a paint brush and flip the paint onto the bait?Any ideas?
-
Sounds good,thanks.

I just shot some wicked colors dark umber that is very close right out of the bottle,you could tweak it if needed.
-
Mark, do you dip it in acetone quickly then in water to rinse ? That is my method for fletching arrow shafts.

I am searching for the best way to prep a plastic bait. Acetone, denatured alcohol , etc... Pros and cons of each ? I appreciate any replies .

I have mixed white with the florescent pink and shot over the dark purple then reshot over that again with straight florescent pink,worked great.Thanks for all the replies , very helpful.

Thanks for the replies.I see baits that are painted with a dark body with light colored tiger stripes,how would they paint the light colored first ?
-
I see various baits with a dark body that is painted with a light colored head or various light colored dots.Seems there would be a way to achieve this without having to paint those areas white again. I can't find anything in the tutorials on general painting to steer me in the right direction .

What should I expect for number of coats to get good coverage ? I am painting flour.pink head over a dark purple body on a ddhj and am not having much luck,very new to this.

I picked up the binding covers last night at Staples Chuck.Good thing you gave me the part #,I would have been there for many moons looking for them.Tried them out and they look to be just the ticket.Appreciate the help!Just getting into this so I will be learning as I go.Painting these DDHJ12's may have to wait til next winter, its about time to be on the water!
-
Ok,I will give them a shot.I tried overhead projector transparencies with no luck,too thin I believe.Thanks for the input.

Just wondered what mil plastic you guys are using to make your stencils and where are you getting it from? I am using the vacuum box,heat gun method to form around Rapala DDHJ 12's cut in half.Any pricing would be helpful as well.Thanks!
