Re: Powder painting bullet weights?
Ted,
I got your message and replied (and sent you an email).
I'll go find the vials and post the info off the labels. The color ID on each of them is "red holograph" and "gold holograph." They're "glitter" so it's red flakes in the red holograph and gold flakes in the gold holograph. With the vial where I mixed them, the jigheads (heated over a candle) come out with some red and gold glitter on the jigheads and the backdrop is black.
The red holograph comes out a good red glitter color. The gold one always seems to come out with very little gold in it but I have a brand new can of stuff here that's Pro Flake Glitter Clear coat. I'm eager to see how much "golder" it is that the stuff I've been using for a couple of years.
Looking forward to trying to paint the bullet sinkers. For fishing this saltwater, I use mostly soft plastic tails. I've used the Mustad power lock to make the lures weedless but I've had some good success using the Texas rig with an offset hook to catch the redfish, snook and trout down here. I just thought some nice paints on them would be pretty sweet.
