Eyes

[Grainraiser]

Superglue almost instantly dissolves and discolors Green Chartreuse Pro-Tec powder paint.

Anyone found a better glue that dries quickly, doesn’t yellow, and won’t affect cured powder paint?

Pro-tech is all I use and have never had a problem with Loctite gel glue discoloring my jig heads. I only use a small dap of glue to secure the eyes.

What is the product number you are using?

I looked at the bottle and it says Loctite Super Glue Gel Control. I use a Xacto knife to remove the eyes from the pad and just put small dab of loctite on the jighead. I use the end of my bobbin to maneuver the eyes in place.

i found the same issue but i use a tiny small dab. maybe the one w/ gel control so it will be easy to manage. less is better in this case

Eyes have the look for sure,,,,check out Big Kens jigs with the predator eyes,,,makes ya wanna cry,,,,

I believe Ken just sticks them then clear coats over them a time or two with topcoat nail finish

Yes they are beautiful. I seen he was using a new paint called stardust and he was saying no need to glue the eyes down. Just press them on when still hot and tacky and they stick well. Not sure if he was top coating with anything.

Those should grab a fishes attention

I can’t find any place that sells those dragon eyes for 1/8 oz jigheads. At least they don’t say what they fit,,,,anyone have a good supplier for eyes?
