troutbum421 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2007 I bought a pack of white foam popper heads that I plan on tying pike flies with. I was wondering if using an airbrush to paint the heads would work. Would the paint stay on? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nightfish 0 Report post Posted July 26, 2007 Give the foam a first coat with flex seal or a clear acrylic based paint. Then hit them with the color, and seal the paint with the clear stuff. Also, wash your hands before handling them. Dirt & finger oils can affect the paint. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
