Striperknight 11-03-2007, 04:35 PM I go to homies and get plastic primer. Use airbrush paints and a super thin epoxy coat. tattoobob 11-03-2007, 07:00 PM Make sure you sand it down so the paint sticks good 220 then 440 jim sylvester 11-04-2007, 10:38 AM paint those f 80's and send one my way:hihi: wanna trade? luds 11-04-2007, 10:43 AM paint those f 80's and send one my way:hihi: wanna trade? I let tobias have them. I'm such a nice guy.:usd: I'm painting a couple of the larger x-raps. Those things cast and swim great but they don't make a black or blurple. I want a couple for a certain spot on BI. :cheers: jim sylvester 11-04-2007, 10:58 AM this week? luds 11-04-2007, 12:34 PM this week? next weekend plankton 11-09-2007, 05:20 PM I'm painting a couple of the larger x-raps.

I've been thinking about doing some in blurple myself, be interested to hear what worked or what didn't. Vogt 11-09-2007, 08:01 PM Those larger x-raps are nice. I used them a few times in strong currents and they hold/work nicely. I caught a couple of bass on them when the ussual stuff wasnt doin it. luds 11-11-2007, 06:11 PM Luds, how did those turn out? I've been thinking about doing some in blurple myself, be interested to hear what worked or what didn't. Didn't get them done. capesams 11-13-2007, 07:03 AM save yourself abit of trouble and use wil-bond instead of sandpaper..a fast wipe and off comes the old paint and softens/etches the plastic to accept the new paint...small [black]cans at most haredware stores. tattoobob 11-13-2007, 05:08 PM save yourself abit of trouble and use wil-bond instead of sandpaper..a fast wipe and off comes the old paint and softens/etches the plastic to accept the new paint...small [black]cans at most haredware stores. use plenty of ventilation with wil-bond tattoobob 11-13-2007, 06:27 PM :huh:.. only fun thing left in life..... quit all the other stuff ;) gotta luv huffing them actetone based solvent type stuff :spin: I hate that feeling:yak::spin: Gunpowder 11-13-2007, 07:15 PM speakin of the x-raps, anyone try out those subwalks yet? just curious to kno if they really hold under the water or if its easy to get them to surface in rough conditions luds 11-13-2007, 07:25 PM speakin of the x-raps, anyone try out those subwalks yet? just curious to kno if they really hold under the water or if its easy to get them to surface in rough conditions looks like they're only 5/8 oz......good luck with them and rought conditions.
