  1. So what comes out cause isn't it pretty much a gas anyway? It seems like it would feel like air regardless
  2. Ok yeah I bought a can of Bloxygen, I'm gonna kbs in jar and use thick plastic wrap under lid. I will spray bloxygen in it everytime I go to seal it up. Hope that works. Also how do you know when bloxygen is empty since can already feels empty? I know this probably sounds like a dumb question
  3. I'm wondering if UV resin would be a Better clear coat than KBS? I mean I love kbs dip, hang, done and the shine and durability are Great. Just only downfall is making sure it doesn't start curing in Jar.
  4. Been using diamond clear for clear coat, but I don't dip a whole lot at one time. The diamond clear starts setting up in my jar before I dip again. I put a plastic bag over jar then tighten my lid. What can I do to preserve it while I'm not using it?
  5. Different prices and I usually get them at Allreds taxidermy
  6. I make baits straight from scratch, two sided foam baits molded together, made by hand, that is custom to me. The paint job I put on them is straight old school nothing fancy. The paint means nothing it's all in the vibration of the lure.

    Paints

    I've tried using createx paint for my crankbaits and I'm just not liking it at all. Heat set, takes to long to dry, too many coats to get the brightness I want. I'm thinking seriously about going back to taxidermy lacquers. Dries on the spot, color that just pops without multiple coats. The only bad is the fumes, but I have a stove hood in front of a window. I'm just still trying to decide what I want to do.
  8. Is Minwax polycrylic a good clearcoat to use on crankbaits? I've used KBS but I do not like the storage problems. And I done ev6you can do to keep it from setting up. Have been using tap the can method but I dont like brushing it on. I want something where I can dip and hang.
  9. Yes I did, and also the seal was on the paint as well
  10. Why is my Opaque black not shooting real dark? Also it's running some and I haven't thinned it at all.
  11. How many do you usually coat at a time before you ever start cleaning your brush?
  12. Does anyone know of the best NON MCU clear coat. Is MCU even best to use anyway? I mean I'm just trying to get some ideas on what I should be using. I'm thinking seriously about just using tap the can method and just dispense out little at a time and brush it on then hang them up to dry. But how do you get the stuff out of a brush once it starts setting up?
  13. That's what I use is Mason jars. Also I dip quick to ensure that it's not open long.
  14. I would use it and right before I sealed it back up I would barely lift lid spray it in there and then seal it.
  15. You talking about after you use it?
