Hey, duane......it can be done but it's a hassle and time consuming. Just remove the blade and old paint, heat and dip. When hardened, you will have to work on the swivel to free it up. After about a dozen, you will be ready to go back to a paint brush and spend the saved time fishing. I tried cutting the original swivel off, powder painting, and using a new swivel, attatching w/ small split rings. Even more tedious and time consuming. I now use Testors model paint and they're done, plus drying time. There are specialty paints for jigs, and most are expensive. Some of them will give you a buzz as you breathe the vapors, very unpleasant! Good luck!
