Great video as always Don’t want to hijack your video, but I’ve been painting lures about a year now, and there’s some things I wish I knew when I started. As with you, I use nearly all Createx paints. After stocking up with their basic paints, I’ve learned that the regular paints are typically too thick for me to shoot through a .35 needle and are made to work with soft materials like fabric. The Wicked line is thinner and works much better in airbrushes for hard surfaces like lures. For me all Createx paints I’ve tried work better mixed with UVLS and 10% reducer. The UVLS and a little reducer makes a HUGE difference in adhesion, resistance to scratching, and how well the paint flows. I almost never get tip dry now. Works best mixed in a little medicine cup and let it stand 10 minutes to emulsify per Createx instructions. Createx just came out with a new 4021 reducer that replaces every other reducer and paint mixed with it does not have short shelf life like their other reducers. Old reducer makes an excellent airbrush cleaner if you want to use it up Also, you will save yourself a lot of headaches if you keep dried paint off the tops of the bottles. One piece the size of a grain of sand will clog your tip. When guys think they have tip dry I think it’s much more common to have chunks in the paint. If anyone reading this hasn’t watched your video on realistic scales, it’s amazing Thanks for the effort you put into these

Been making and painting lures for a while. These basic tips will be a big help for those starting out. The thicker Createx paints were quite frustrating for me at first, until I learned how much the required thinning to work in my airbrush. Thanks for the vid!

Do you have any advice on overspray? Every time I try to do a fire-tiger lure, the yellow ends up speckled and looks like a cool ranch Dorito

Haha Sorry the decription was too funny :D! Play with airpressure, Lowering the airpressure might help. But if it is too low then you also get overspray, its finding that sweet spot. Also reducing the paint a bit more might help, that makes it more runny and less particles will float around the air. Let me know if it worked!

I really like your videos and any time they pop up I watch them. I DO NOT like the fact that you feel a need to play music while you talk as it detracts from your video.

My first experience usings an airbrush was terrible I would first test the paint on a plank to see if it works It does Now to use it on my lure All of a sudden very transparent Can't control the amount It creates tears Doesn't dry Looks shit Ect I fucking hate the airbrush and would sooner use a spay paint can than waste my time again

It takes time and practice to master the airbrush, Take a deep breath analize the mistake and what might cause the problem, Try to solve it and try again. The only way we can learn things is by making mistakes. And if you really dont like the airbrush, just as you said , there are other options too! 😊
