3 Ways to Powder Paint Jig Heads
Рет қаралды 41,529
4 жыл бұрынPowder painting jig heads is nothing new. I've made a few videos showing how I've been powder painting jigs and other lead weights. In this video I show you how to make a simple fluid bed, and how to use it. I also show a couple of other methods, including one that you have never seen.

Yes, yes, yes. Please show the vibration bed build. I built 2 fluid beds already using a fish tank air pump. It works well, but I do have the volcano effect with the powder every now and then. I also get a fine mist of powder that comes off of it and coats everything on my table. I also need to wear a mask when powder painting. Want to avoid all that if possible. Now that we are in this stay at home phase, I got all the time in the world to do it.

Just built your fluid bed with the fan. It works great, thanks for sharing your invention. I had good luck bringing the hook shaft in contact with the edge of the jar right after dipping and it shakes all the excess off quickly. then a quick reheat and got near perfect results.

Franco, I am a big fan of your KZfaq channel. I love everything about fishing. But as a DIY “gadgeteer” I love combining my love of fishing with lure making among other fishing or shop related creations. You are great at communicating the thought, or logic process as well as the creative. Please do a vlog on the vibrating powder paint gadget. Happy fishing from “Poppy”!

Hey man I don’t do the jig heads yet but I just wanted to drop a comment and give you a huge thank you for your videos it has put me in a better position to make great baits I have purchased the China version of the uv clear and its so much better than thirty min epoxy, And countless other small tips and tricks you have turned me onto! I’m having to let them set up for a day to let the uv clear to not be tacky but it’s head and shoulders better than the thirty min I was using!!! Keep the videos coming

I thin it 15% by volume with water for the airbrush. You can probably spray it straight with a conventional spray gun.

how do prevent the bait for blocking the eye? or what do you do to clear it? Thanks for the vid!!!
@EngineeredAngler 4 жыл бұрын
Using a fluid bed helps to keep the powder paint from filling the details like the eye sockets. You just have to be careful to put on a light coat. As far as the hook eye, I clear out the paint with split ring pliers.
