i wouldnt know but id suggest using some sort of polycarbonate spray on plastic hardbody type lures. Bonds much better and you can get it at most hobby shops

nail polish works and you can get a heap of colours cheap.

permanent markers work aswell.

can't beat hobby paint and an airbrush set-up though.

for metal blades you can also get a bake-on paint - heat up the blade, dip it into the powder, watch it melt then let it cool.

Hi Guys

In all seriousness if you want a new paint job on your lures get in touch with Dan Stead from Impact Tackle who air brushes lures and the quality he turns out will blow your mind. For a pretty cheap price when compared to the process involved you can get all your lures with colours you don't throw and have them pimped by Dan into the perfect colour pattern you had always dreamed about.
You can check out some info on Dan at www.bream.com.au

Cheers
Bill
