Jolicious Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 (edited) Hey everyone, The answer is probably here somewhere, but after a while of searching, I can't combine the right words to find the right thread I guess. I am about to paint some blanks for a friend of mine, and am already dreading the clear coat. Top water plugs, with gill slits in them - how in the world will I get a good clear coat coverage without filling in the slits? I normally use a 2 part mix (akin to Envirotex or something like that) as a clear coat. I really appreciate any ideas / help. Thank you Joe.

ravenlures Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 If the lure is not big I would try KBS and dip them, its a lot thinner and you could blow out the gill area with a airbrush will need two dips or three depending on size. KBS will turn rock hard just let cure for a week after dipping. Wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark poulson Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 You can use clear nail polish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azsouth Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 I dip them with KBS then blow out the slots using as little air pressure as possible, to much pressure will basically ruin the finish. My .02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
