Dude I love Auto Air and Wicked Colors!
 
Started out using the Createx range, but this is more suited to textiles and the Auto Air and Wicked Colors are better for our application; harder substrates.
 
No adhesion problems now I have my process dialled in... I don't like candy's however I'm too impatient to build the colour.
 
These are Wicked Colors Fluorescent Colours.

I'm using it to(no way I'm putting pics of my lures up against this class of lure) and also have the adhesion part sorted,did the cross hatch with the knife and all good.Just got to perfect my painting and gloss.
I have a snake skin,one that the original owner left behind.Not sure what to do with it so if anybody wants it I'll post it.Its whole and quite strong as I was able to slide a lure body in.That's as far as my expertise went.
Excellent work guys.

I'd love to give the snake skin a go Jimbo, PM sent!

Those colours are sweet as too. They really come up a treat.

Having never used water base paints am I correct in thinking that they can be sprayed in any weather, mostly so on rainy days.??????????????

Absolutely no issues at all Poolie, in fact the Envirotex has a good effect of hiding some blemishes but also pronouncing others... You find out what you can get away with!

If your compressor can handle the extra moisture i.e sufficient traps etc. There is no problems using this paint in any weather...
 
I can paint year round with these paints, all I struggle with now is keeping up the ambient temp in the cooler months for the Envirotex Lite epoxy to cure in an acceptable time frame.

Thanks fellas, I use water based Testors air brush paints which are good but they vary in thickness per bottle just looking for something a little more consistent and has a better colour range Testors don’t have gold which is a pain these look great.
