Random quote: Muskies are nasty. They stink. They taste bad. They are hard to catch and will disappoint even the most devoted angler. The lures required cost more than some women's jewelry. The rods and reels require a remortgage of the house. The boat is always worth more than the tow vehicle. Sure beats the hell out of golf.

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.
