The paint I wanted for my "Hot Shiner" jig came in a few days ago. So I redid it!! It's a hard paint to get right, and the tie is kinda hard as well!!
It's going to be a killer for clear water!!!

Very nice jigs!
Way to go Rob. That is some fantastic looking jigs. Might be hard to tie but bet they catch a lot of fish, which makes it all worthwhile.. If you don't mind what paint is that?
Disco silver, it's tricky to do right!!

I just got the disco gold a couple of weeks ago. Tricky to say the least. I found I had to cut way back on the heat for it to do right. Sure makes some pretty baits though. Thinking about trying a couple more of those color's.

Not a very good picture. Like you said camera really does not do those color's justice.
You guys are artists

Those look fantastic. Great job.:santa
NICE NICE NICE!!!
Nice paints - most of the disco colors if you mix regular powder color, clear powder and glitter can be made the same way. got a buddy who showed me how to make a green with green glitter that makes for a really nice paint job. Moved away from the pro-tec and gone to the automotive powder paints.
Fatman is there a reason you moved to the automotive? Performance, price?Quote:

The automotive powder paints cure just like pro-tec and the price is way better plus its fun to mix colors.
Super, great colors
There are only a few actual Mfg's of powder paints, but each seller will have their on density and Pro-Tec has it closer to how you would want to use it! Some colors don't take cuttings no with clear as well as most, like Chrome I would add clear! However address no Clear makes it a lot easier on the fluid bed and has no impact on the color. The best thing you can do is buy a pound of clear from Rosey's in the 200% Gloss and max that will kit for your colors and it will help thin them and make the colors last long longer!
Also remember if you want the Green Chartreuse, Pro-Tec is the only player for that color! It happens to be the color I use mos too so buying it by the pound is the only way I get that one! Well truth, I buy them all by the pound, but for sure the Chartreuse is used a great deal!
Skip
Dunno about Doug, but it's about all I've used. Those guys get big discounts bc they have to buy so much to do the job. A pound to them is like a teaspoon to us.Quote:
