Lure Stainless
How to paint on surfaces such as steel. Please Help!?
hey, im looking to start creating my own fishing lures such as a wobbler. if you don’t already know, a wobbler is a fishing lure that is shaped like a spoon. i am wondering how to paint the surface of my spoon-like lures so they look nice. the paint needs to stick on and be very durable. also, it needs to be waterproof. the surface i will be painting on will be made of brass, aluminium or steel (about 2 mm thick). the main thing is that this paint needs to be waterproof, rustproof and durable. i have asked random people and they all seem to say i need to sand the surface, then prime it, then use an oil based paint to spray on it, and finally, use some time of coating to lock everything in. i am not sure if that is correct so i am asking you guys. thanks in advance. cheers!
ps. if anyone could give me a rough estimate as to how much a 2′ x 2′ piece of metal would be in these types of metals:
aluminium
steel
stainless steel
brass
THANKS AGAIN!
I suggest:
1. Sand or polish with steel wool
2. Clean with acetone
3. Paint with oil-based paint
Forget about the primer and clearcoat. That would be helpful on larger surfaces, but is too troublesome for small objects.
You should use stainless steel if possible. No matter how well you paint regular steel, eventually it’ll rust through any imperfections/wear in the paint.
Regarding the metal prices, search for “metal stock”.
