Location: Racine, Wi | Hey basement crazies. I have a few baits that I'm thinking of giving some spraycan paint jobs to this winter (as I'm not going to get way into this so no air brushing etc). Do I need to sand the bait down to get to the base plastic, then paint, then epoxy, or can I just scuff up the paint a bit and go from there. I'm only looking to paint the back and belly and leave the sides alone for now on one (10" jake), but if I have other baits I want to mess with, just curious as to what I need to do to repaint them.
Thanks boys! | |

You could scuff them up with a SOS pad , don't get to close to the edges or you will remove the paint, wash the bait and dry, Paint away, let dry and then epoxy.
P.S. Practice before you spray.

| You could skip the epoxy step and just use some rattle can lacquer for a top coat. It won’t be as durable, but it will be easier to repaint again in a couple years. | |
