Consequently when I remove the lead eyes I leave PP in the pan and not on the bottom of the eyes.
Also, does anyone else have problems with white powder paint? It's the only color I have trouble with. It always goes on too heavy
Thanks for you help in advance..
On the white, just don't leave it in the heat source as long before you dip them. I got to say all the Lead dumbbell eyes I have come painted as I didn't want to deal with that. Maybe if you just paint the ends you can find something to hold them in the middle to keep them up off the pan? Then after just coat the middle with nail polish to keep them from oxidizing on you later.
