Paint question

[Gill-T]

To those of you that customize your lures, can you spray over the counter fluorescent spray can paint on rapalas without causing a bubble reaction?  What would you clear coat it with?  Thanks.

Some of these paints do bubble some stick baits, have had issues with Smithwicks and Bayrats and Mag Lips - haven’t painted any Rapalas

I've used conversion varnish works well on smithwicks I used a matt sheen

I had some fluorescent paint laying around and my wife’s clear nail polish. Low tech. Probably will come off with first fish lol. Off to a friend for testing in Ohio waters.

Looks good. If the paint comes off after the first fish don't worry. Michigan Stingers paint comes off after the first as well.

I think the UV tape evolution has saved their butts in protecting their paint jobs over there at Michigan Stinger/ Gibbs. Great spoon blank. I own many.
