    A couple of things you may want to try. First the ones that have the really full tail you may want to use a little less material so it doesn't bush up so thick (not a big deal though). Next if you are using powder paint and curing it in the oven you should stick something through the hook eye as soon as you pull it out of the paint because it's pretty darn hard to get the paint out after it's baked on.

    Other than that just keep trying and practicing and they will get better and better. The whip finish it better for sure.
