“Flame Red” powder paint problems

I purchased a container from a supplier that had been repackaged, It looks like blaze orange, I don’t bake my jigheads, would it look more red if I did? I mean it is not even close to red now. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Thanks

Color looks a little dark to me for flame red. The color you have doesn’t bother me though with your tied jigs. Very nice.

It will be blaze orange after heating, then turn red after a few days of sitting. I dont know why, but it does.

Color doesn't bother me either. Jigs look great to me. I like the color combo.

Why do you not bake your heads to finish them?

The color charts are from TJ’s Tackle and I reference them regularly.

Maybe try fingernail polish. It works well and requires no baking. You can buy a lot of colors for what 2 ounces of powder paint goes for. When I first started, I built wood clamps to hold my jigs for painting and drying.

Looks good to me, I would leave them alone.

Maybe just me, but I like the Fame Red a lot and I believe it has Florescent properties too. I have used it for all my years of tying, like 18 years now.
you need a different red to get that blood red!

Howdy Skip. Good to see you back for a little.

That looks like my flame red Pro Tec. I think it looks like the old Chevrolet Orange they used to paint their motors. Leave well enough alone.
