    Default Couple Swimmers


    I had a few of these swimmers left over from a while back that were just a boring PearlTreuse. So I thought Id spice them up a bit! For those that are having issues with dipping baits in clear plastic... Your problems will be solved if you start using Clearasol to dip. NOTHING compares to this stuff! The stuff is super clear and NO bubbles. I reheated it 4 times with no stabilizer and it was pretty much as clear as I started. The key is that you can still dip this at much lower temps... In the low 300's. Its a spike it product in case ya didn't know.

    I sprayed those from the top down. You can have pretty good control of where the paint goes. The brush does a fine line when your right up close to the bait.
