I don't see why it wouldn't work. Have been using puffypaint and many other types for raised patterns for years. This would just give a different look. I wonder how durable it is? If it is tough then adding spots and patterns to spinner blades just got a lot easier.

Looks pretty cool but as I said in another thread I'm not sure if eyed jigs work better than non eyed. but being a tackle junkie if somebody tries it let us know.
