Qboy, it would be great if we could go to Wally World, pick up a can of cheap spray paint, shoot it on a crankbait and expect it to perform like a factory finish. But that's not gonna happen. If you want a crankbait repaint to look good and last, you have to remove any oxidized or chipped paint, paint the crankbait, then coat it with a very durable topcoat. That doesn't seem to be what you're looking for, so it's hard to recommend a quick fix. The reality is a Baby 1- is cheap enough that the cost of materials to repaint one cost more than a new bait. So unless you want to get into crankbait repainting as a hobby, I say use the lure "as is".
