Hello, I have a few old bulldawgs that I want to repaint. I have an airbrush. What paint and clear coat can I use to repaint dawgs/dussas?

Thanks for your help! Bob

Two options:
No clear required for this - https://www.ispikeit.com/category/72/sb-coat-solvent-based

Clear SB needs to go over this - https://www.ispikeit.com/category/97/colure-coat-water-based

^^^^ nailed it
SB Coat is very toxic. Wear a fresh air respirator or a mask/spray outside.

Here is a pic of what the SB coat paint can do. I use the clear heavily after to give it a gloss.

Paddletails are tough to make. It takes a few tries at each model at least to get tail thickness and body dimensions just right for the kick u r looking for. These baits took three tries.
Pull Baits are easier cause u usually only need to tweak the weighted harness, which is cheaper and less time consuming.
