    Default Now we are cooking with Peanut oil


    I built a 4 cup fluid bed for my jigs. Not to bad for $20.

    Got something similar but I used a 2" union and put a coffee filter where the two screw together. Cut a 3" long piece of 2" PVC for the bottom and ran my air in there. Now I get a more even flow of air thru the paint bed.

    Just wondering how long do you have to keep them in there and how many can you put in at 1 time? Thanks

    I powder coat my jig heads one at a time. Get the paint fluffy with the air flow, heat the jig head with a heat gun, grab the jig head by the hook eye with a pair of needle nose pliers, and shake the jig head thru the paint. Takes all of a few seconds. I have a rack that I hang them on and bake them in the oven for 10-15 minutes at 350. Doing that makes the paint really set up and get hard. Also holding the jig head by the hook eye doesn't allow the paint to cover the eye and you don't have to knock the paint out of the eye.

    Next time I do some I'll GoPro it and post it up. Easy to learn and do. I can paint a hundred heads in about 10 mins with setup. I have said a heap of money pouring and painting my own jigheads
