matt metzger Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 Hey guys i have nothing and no knowledge of painting lures. I want to know what i need to buy and how to do things... ANY help is greatly appreciated. thanks Quote
BIG M Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Get a quality airbrush (Iwata) a compressor, good airbrush paint(taxidermy) and get ready to practice and then practice some more. I know some guys picked it up real quick but I was not one of thsoe guys. I bought 5 traps and 5 cranks from Jann's and have painted those baits several hundred times. That's the best advice I can give. Quote

cootertom Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 Be prepared to give up all your free time and most fishing time. But to the bright side your fishing tackle will look great with no time to fish it. ;D Quote
djmax22 Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 I am looking at painting too to pass the time now that I am unemployed. What model of Iwata brush do you guys suggest and what paint brand? I already have a compressor. I am dying to paint some of these old cranks lying around. Quote
