i use vinyl paint by CS. I use a nail head to make my eyes, then put a clear coat of nail polish over it.... sally hansons hard as nails.
I am fixing to start powder painting and curing my jigheads. I would like to put a simple one color eye on them afterwards. What kind of paint do I need? What's a good trick to apply the paint? And, Do I need to re-cure or seal this paint after applying?

Black is the only color in vinyl shat is shinny without the clear vinyl over coat. Personally I use cheap drill bits that have a flat end and I also use Outdoor Acrylic with Sally Henson's Hard as Nails fear coat unless it's FL Yellow or Chart and then I use Clear Vinyl clear coat. Just know any vinyl takes a pretty long time to dry and for sure to cure.
The flat end of drill bits and I use 2 part epoxy from Do It. For me, I have to make 400-700 at a time if I'm going to go to that much trouble. The good thing it will last for many years. This also allows me to buy a small can of cheap paint (about 4-$5 from Lowes) After letting it eyes dry for 24 hours, I use the epoxy. Lot of trouble but they should look like they do now in 20 years.
