Just curious as to how you guys paint multiple color jigs? Spray paint, hand paint, dip?????? I am familiar with powder painting jigs, but I can only do one color. Thanks!!!

I've tried some speckled ones where you have the base color then reheat and tap some different colored powder from a paint brush. If you search powder painting you're going to find some REALLY great info and read how the guys are doing it.

I don't do it much, but if I want two colors I dip it and have an eye dropper waiting with a little paint in it and I just puff with the eye dropper, then back into the flame just for a second and done. Maybe there is a better way to control it, but that is how I do it.
I also use a different eye dropper for each color as I don't want to try cleaning one. I just bought a box of them. I don't think it's really worth the trouble though, I mean people even have different takes on if painting at all is even worth it. I do like to paint them, but one color is all I really care for.

See one below I did, but it's more for fun.

I like that one Skip. Nice Marble color.

Thank you, but you never know what pattern you may get. I suppose that over time you could learn some tricks to help, but that eye dropper puff has no real control as to what happens, LOL! I wish I was that good to make it come out how I want and then I would do more. I do like playing around with it. Have to be honest though.

There's a local guy here that makes a paticular stand up worm hook for a 10 inch worm. He has a head color that is watermelon pearl that is marbled like this, pretty awesome color too.
