Question On paining jig heads.

[skiptomylu]

What I’m interested in is that chenille. Guess there are some new colors out or that one has been out and I didn’t realize it.

Chenille colors are almost limitless! What ever one can dream up can be ordered! I have been tying for about 15 years and ordered from Danville almost the whole time. I still come up with simple new age colors all the time. I just got an order in with a new to me color and just made another order with another new one I never had. Maybe someone else has it, I don’t know because I just get what I dream up, lol!

Bob some guys are making their own paint, don't know or understand how or what. Will send you a link later to what he does. I do know he charges a lot for each jig though.

It looks like I’ll have to do some experimenting skip to see what we can come up with.

The chenille I have also seen guys take two different ones and then twist them together to make a completely different one then wrap that. Woods and Water has a video on that technique.

Pretty much you 1st put what ever color you want to show through be it one, two, three colors and then dip in crinkle paint then heat again. I knew I should done video last night. Funny how thread popped up asking about it. I’ll definitely get one up.

Hopefully I will try that this weekend. I already had planned to since I had been seeing that a lot lately on jigs. It’s a cool effect. Thanks DrNip

Got side tracked today. 2 cup fluid bed pissed me off so I started building a 4 cup with air chamber setup. Lol

I tried the color then crinkle but the color didn’t show through good. Only tried 3 though, I had other issues I was dealing with....lol
