re painting old flat fish

[cool][#0000ff]Most of the glow paints are worthless. No matter what color the color of the material in lighted conditions, they tend to glow a pale green...for only a few minutes at best.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I had been buying glow powder from EXTREME GLOW products, but they recently discontinued it. They had a great glue glow powder that stayed charged for a long time. I mixed it with clear jig enamel and painted it over a white base. Then, I top coated it with clear epoxy.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I sold the last of the blue glow I had to Coldfooter, and he mixed some into the plastic lures he is making. He reported that the blue glow stuff was about the only thing they could get bites on at the Gorge during tough times. I have also heard that an old black lure with blue glow stripes works good on macks at Bear Lake at times.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I found a new source of glow powders and paints, but have not personally had a chance to try any of them yet. [url "http://www.glowinc.com/"]HERE IS THE LINK[/url] if you want to check them out.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Those old Flatfish are worth restoring...not just for sentimental value but because they work. Good luck.[/#0000ff]
