I'm a little different, I like to take a 10'' long x 3'' piece of PVC glue a cap on one end and the other gets a screw fitting. I fill the tube with oil based paint, not all the way up to the top.

Then when I need to I unscrew the cap and dunk the lead heads and let them dry and then dunk them a second time to get a good cover.

The way I look at this is, when I go to the canal it seems everytime a jig hits the bottom the paint comes off. After the day of fishing if the jig needs re-painting, I just dunk it in the paint and let it dry.

I'll try to post some pics

Hope this helps
