Location: Bowling Green, KY | Any body ever used this stuff to paint a lure? I have a couple Salmo Hodags that
are glow in the dark, which I HATE!! They look like a big neon sign coming across
the water. I would love to paint them some other color and this paint is supposed
to stick to lawn furniture and stuff real well. Thanks, Roger London. |

Location: Mt. Zion, IL | I have used this and have had reasonable success. I painted some throwable marker buoys and the paint has worn off after two years of use now. I also painted a few lures i pulled up with my lure retriever (many years old) and I coated them with about 5 coats of paint. They have held up all season now and I would use it again. Make sure to rough it up and clean it with rubbing alcohol before you hit it with the paint. Good luck! |

Location: Land of the Musky | Just make sure you get the plastic lure back down to plastic. The paint "eats" into the top layer of plastic as the solvents in it slightly dissolves the polymer and impart the paint into the plastic. Nasty stuff if you breathe it. I have the MSDS at work for it. yum yum! |

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | I works pretty well, but as was said, don't breath the fumes. I have found it bonds nicely to Weagle finishes, as my bright blue Weagle will prove out.
No, I didn't choose that color, Sue painted our patio furniture that color and there was some left. |

| I will second Steve's observation about Krylon and Weagle finishes -- no surface prep or anything, painted one of mine black figuring it would all peel off in a few days. It's been over a year, and short of a bit of hook rash it's still black.
Rust-o-leum works quite well also.

Location: Bowling Green, KY | I masked off his orange belly, and shot him a coat, leaving a glow in the dark
ring around his eyes. That ought to look interesting coming back, kind of like
head lights. |
