    Wink VIDEO DUSTING A SOFT PLASTIC LURE How to color a soft bait mold with Alumidust


    This video shows how to dust a mold with alumidust and then inject it. This really makes the lure look cool. I would love to try this on my two inch lures. Let it cool and then clear coat it. What do you experts think of this technique? Have you ever done this?

    Ship....the pearls he uses are easy to get. They are great IN plastic or powder paint, but when you dip a brush in them and start wisking away, there is a ton of fly-away dust that gets on everything. You won't even see it until you touch a surface full of it and then rub your mitts on something else. I got some of the dust on antique glassware that had been washed and was ready to take to the antique shop. Ma began to wrap the glass in packing tissue for the trip and it didn't take long to have a serious mess. I was not a popular presence for a few days. To top it off, the baits did not look very good.

    Now I got it! Now I really know what pulls us together... It's our experiences with she that must be obeyed! She tolerates me bring my plastics up stairs to be packaged that is where it ends! If moma unhappy the whole house is unhappy! By the way this next Wed. By Gods grace I'll be married to her for 20 years... My first ,I married when I was almost 37. Nothing compares when the little lady and I are hitting on all 8 cylinders! It's a beautuful thing!

    Yeah G and CTom. Mom would have had a hissy fit if I tracked dusting from the garage on to the carpets. Thanks guys.
