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.

I go to homies and get plastic primer.
Use airbrush paints and a super thin epoxy coat.

I let tobias have them. I'm such a nice guy. 
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.  |

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. |
