RangerZ Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 I am thinking about making the investment in a small sandblaster to do suspending baits. A buddy wants me to repaint some Staysees and Roques. Has anybody done this and does the sandblasting take the scale effect off? Thanks.

onlybass Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 Glass beads will not take ridges in plastic off. Crushed glass is slightly more aggressive but only "dulls" ridges but will not cut good gel-coat Rogues. The "thin paint" Rogues are quickly cleaned. Do a search on this site and you should find this info and info about "wiping" paint off with MEK. Have you tried just priming and painting over one(Rogue) and using one or two thin coats of epoxy? You may be surprised. I was. Suspend nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerZ Posted March 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 Onlybass, I did the search and found the tip about MEK. The reason I was asking about the sandblasting is that I did a Staysee for a guy and it had a tendency to sink a little. I haven't actually tried a Rogue yet, was trying to keep them as original as possible. Thanks for the reply. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
