I have never had a need for powder painting my little Crappie jigs. I go to Walmart and buy craft paint for $1 for each color and give the heads 1 coat of white first, then the second coat with whatever color I want at the time. Take a round wood toothpick and cut it in 1/2, dip the larger end in some paint and dab on the jig head for eyes, when this is dry take the small pointed toothpick end and dip in paint and dab in a eye pupil. Paint the head when dry with clear Dollar store nail polish or a water base lacquer and they
hold up great for me. Hope this helps you out.
