after the base color is on[ an well dried] I shake the can to death, then make two squirts in the air to make sure it's all paint that's coming out an not just the carryer,,then in ONE med-fast pass over the screening I let it have it,,,wait one minute if that an take the screen off....if you leave it on to long to dry, you'll find your screening welded to the base coat....repaint.


newlly...signed or not?

Bernzy I never implied U don't know about plugs.An I didn't realize U were A S-B sponser/Plug builder.I always admired ur distinctive paint schemes.good luck in ur endeavors.I would bet the people at gibbs are loosin lots of sleep over all the danny's I see copied here.If ur plugs are good u won't be able to make enough.just ask Mr.Habs.The negative attitude is not good for biz.u attract more bee's with sugar. What do i know i only OWN thousands of plugs.

No problem at all NIB. I was just voicing my opinion.
Thank you for the kind comments and well wishes.

Capesams...where can I get some of that mesh netting that you use and when I have it rigged up like you do in the picture with the hanger.....how do you lay it over the plug while painting?

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

ACMoore's= mesh

once the mesh is on the hanger,,I just lay the plug down on a flat surface an place the hanger on top..the weight alone holes the works onto the plug.....spray....wait 45sec's or so and gently lift off.

the museum grows!!!!!May need a new building to house all the plugs...for as many as are shown, there are probably more in and on top of that special file cabinet. I will start building the new home for the plugs, and don't worry cape sam's... I will supply all the boxes to transport the plugs to their new home...
P.s. will deliver the boxes on Monday and even help with packing them up!!!!
