Got some baits I want to get custom painted. Whats the best way to remove the paint that is already on the bait?

normally re-paints guys just remove hooks/rings. depending on baits the custom painter makes the call.

i have a bunch of original 9" Erines. Going to keep a few in the stock color but want to get a few painted. Buddy told me to sand off the paint but i don't want to screw up the body of the bait.

Lightly scuff the bait primer an paint on top of the old paint you'll be fine

Buff lightly with fine paper all you need do is take the shine off
