Can't remember the member, but I read that he just dipped the swivel in water. Hear a sizzle! Then dip in the paint.

I don't have a fluid bed. I dip straight into the jar. Took a couple try's, but it works like a champ

I am pretty sure Dr Nip made the water dipping suggestion.
Yours look great!

Those will do fine, good job. Got to pay attention to the swivels, I have a few solid ones.

I can’t take all the credit JW taught me this years ago. After I dip in water I twist swivel to make sure it turns freely at both ends.

Thanks, didn't check the swivels

Yeah if you don’t you’ll have the ever so slightest amount of paint in the top part of swivel. Then you bake it and there is no getting it to move freely after that just the bottom part of swivel will.

Nice jigs!

Ahh! Well I didn't bake these, just slapped some Sally Hansen on them.

I'll remember that Pro Pointer when I do bake them

I tried that, but couldn't get comfortable doing it even though it worked and maybe the Roadrunner head is harder to do, not sure about that though! I still use the tin foil, but this is not why I replied to this. I wanted to tell you to get a fluid bed, makes things so much easier! Also if you don't bake them your gonna find they chip easy I think.

Skip

Fluid bed and baking agree.
