auto acrylics can be expensive but you can thin it down with premium thinners 50- 50 so if you buy 125 mls you get around 250 mls , pearcey

Dave, you need to move the pics around to reflect text description Wink

and I agree with your comments wholeheartedly, Auto acrylics are the way to go Thumbs Up
Will add to this soon with some step by step shots as I can.

gee those colors really pop Dave.Thumbs Up
Acrylic lacquers are definately a good way to go and shops like supercheap are very reasonably priced,i picked up 4ltrs of monza red there the other day for $109,i'll get about 25 years worth of lures out of thatLOL
