any hints for me?

Hi everyone!.. well this is my first post but ive been reading for some time now.. I got all the necessities for turning plugs and i made my first pencil popper blanks. Before i go further i need some help.

I havent drilled for the thru-wire yet, any suggestions about size 1/8 3/16.. anything? I wanted to know what is the best method for finishing the wire, any tool needed to wrap the loops tightly? and weight whats the best way to add lead to a lure?

I am experienced with finishing wood but i was wondering if anyone had used a brand of sealer called Spray-Zit laquer sanding sealer and Spray-Zit gloss? I use these for work and wonder if i could use them on lures as well.

......Any help is appreciated.
Ben
