    I wonder if anyone else uses this powder paint? If so is it durable like the ones sold on the net for jigs?
    $4.99 for 16 oz
    Available in black, yellow, red, and white.
    Thanks,

    The black is a flat black. No problems other than that.

    I don't use any of it and mostly use Pro-Tec when I can get the color I want from them. I have bought some from a couple other places and it's always different in the fluid bed. I still use it, but nothing I have found works as well as Pro-Tec. It has something different that the other just don't It works better in the cups for the fluid bed and is more loose. Don't know how else to describe it.

    Gonna order a few more colors of it soon from Pro-Tec. Only problem with that is it cost more and you have to buy a pond of each color to buy it direct, but you can buy a smaller container from others.

    I use it all the time. Have not had any issues. And this is even on 1 1/4 oz jig heads. The black I mix in a little of the gloss back then the Cheap stuff is also Gloss black. This way its way cheaper then the others.
    The white is great and so far no issues. The red also works great. The Yellow is somewhat different then what some would like for normal yellow.
    So I use all three a lot. I have about used up 2 lbs of white and black. And starting on the second pound of red . Other colors come from CS Coating. But the ones that Harbor Freight has I use. Wish they had about 25 more colors. LOL

    The White is what I see myself using a lot of more than any other of the other 3.
    Thanks, I'll buy some today and try it out.

    Been using for some time in the colors they have.

    Just remember that the black is matt --flat.
