Hey guys,

I understand how to paint jigs and know how to paint them a single color but am curious as how to add multiple colors or a mottled look? I'm aware of the Boss jig armor paint from fishingskirts.com and want to try it. Here are some examples of what I'm looking for I found on google images:

Thanks and all help is appreciated.

For stuff like that jig you could use an airbrush with powder paint. Heat and dip in your main color, then hit it with the spray guy real quick on the side you want the addition paint. 

 

For the punch sinkers, the way I've done it is to use a paintbrush. You paint your main color, then dip a paintbrush in your powder and just shake or flick it over the top of what you're painting before it cools.

You can get that first effect by using the brush/tap method.  Cadman is the master of that art.
