Easy Lure Painting For Beginners - Zach Baker

[@markstiles433]

Thank you. Just started doing poppers and this is invaluable

[@calilife805]

Thanks man ! I just detailed a local bass pros truck and he hooked me up with over 300 lures some rusted some brand new ! I have like 100$ I want to paint and am going to start cause of you! 💯

[@AngryGumball]

I just got an airbrush myself and used this as a guide for my first airbrushed lure. Pretty pleased with the results, and looks visually striking! Only thing I did slightly different was initially brushing the black on the back of the fish, decided later to take an old toothbrush that I found and give it some speckles.

[@iancoronel5784]

Amazing Channel, because off you I am in airbrushing. Hello from Nicaragua

[@BakerBuilds]

Glad to hear! And thank you!

[@jdogburke]

I'm just now getting into this. Your videos are enormously helpful!

[@BakerBuilds]

Thanks for the comment!! 🤙

[@Hayley070991]

*Fun little bait great for ponds. This thing casts really well for its size, I was surprised. Good for when you need to downsize and gets smaller fish to commit*

[@benbarnes2819]

Just found your channel. I appreciate your time posting these. As a beginner I can use all the help I can get. 🙂

[@danj532]

This is something I always wanted to get into, thank you for the video it shows me understand how it is done and what to use. Thank you.

[@kobrynkamai2076]

Thank you for the video! I am getting ready to start experimenting with lure painting myself, and I definitely built my confidence up!

[@MrBmin1]

Great tutorial! You make it look so easy.

[@corrinned3172]

Blue is my favorite color because it goes with everything

[@waterdoglures1352]

Great video! Thanks for showing us how to do this.

[@HellaBass]

I feel like you down played your channel here, doing a great job!

[@alburke6132]

l'm wanting to start painting cranks for walleye, and have learned to airbrush using a Paache single action airbrush, and am comfortable with using it. I'm thinking that it will work ok to learn, then maybe move on to something else. What's your thoughts. thanks. Love your vids.

[@bgdrewshowers7411]

I have a question for you have you ever airbrush fishing lures but only using Apple barrel paint through airbrush

[@darylwchan]

These are beautiful thank you Baker!

[@donsfishvideos752]

Hey Zach, thanks for the videos. I've learned alot from watching them. I bought some hard baits that look like Pop R's or Chug Bugs but I noticed they don't have an inset for the eyes. Instead, they are raised up so you can use the eyes that I normally use. Is there another type of eye that works on these, or do you just paint them. Please reply soon because this is my favorite lure.

[@BakerBuilds]

The raised bumps on the blanks usually get painted. I believe there are sticker eyes also but not sure how well those would stick. Hope that helps!

[@dwighthuth1171]

I like the Blue on Black look. To set the lure off, I would have painted the fins a yellow base, then more green with red accents.

[@curtismiller7762]

Love the video! What is the vice/clamp that you are using?

[@BakerBuilds]

They are called helping hands! Barlow’s Tackle, harbor freight, and Amazon have them 👍

[@Jasonfisherman81]

Hey buddy what paint is good for just touching up chipped paint on say jig heads.

[@kamarte]

Thanks Zack for your nice vid! Good to see you back! :)

[@MorchfishingNJ]

Woow very good job👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼, excellent 📹, I'm new to your channel, greetings bro 🤟🏼

[@LongviewGarage]

Awesome video, I’ll definitely show it to my kid.

[@nickkonstandinou1070]

What is that stand?

[@sampirillo6264]

Do you use a reducer in the paint?

[@greenapplemusic5574]

ANY HELP? Hello, I'm making spoons the same way. Can you gime me an advice: How to put rings with hooks without scratching final coating and paint? I use special pliers to split rings, but the paint and final coating still rubs off. What to do? What to do...

[@leah-dz2hm]

Can you tell me where you got your 2.5 square bow

[@jorgefranciscohernandezrom1788]

Que es esa tela que le pone para hacer las "escamas"

[@mr.mister7489]

Is the cleaner just plain water? Or a thinner? Or a windex glass cleaner? Thanks

[@paoayanglerstv8638]

Nice.. what do you use to topcoat the lures? Thanks

[@BakerBuilds]

I use Alumi-UV. I have a video on my setup for it 🤙

[@noahmcgalliard8622]

If I may ask I'm looking get in to lure painting and was wondering where you get your stands for the lures at?

[@BakerBuilds]

I get mine from Harbor Freight. I believe Amazon has them as well. They are called helping hands

[@KnifemakerMike]

I am inspired to do this. Thanks for the video

[@tylerk9924]

Awesome channel man question where did you get your stencil that has all the different patterns on it from small to big??

[@brendanlee8287]

Where do you buy the lures you paint

[@daviddevine1757]

Great job and thanks

[@MoserTimmy]

Do you ever use primer or is it not necessary?

[@ivatay18]

Hola que sellador me recomendás para que dure más la pintura en el lure? Gracias

[@JPURG1]

What do you do with the hooks and the swivel things that hold them on?

[@danielitoavilancho6399]

Excelente video. Un saludo desde Medellín, Colombia.

[@byzon123]

Got my first airbrush kit yesterday cant wait to paint my first lure your vid is great What clear coat do you use do you brush it on or dip ? What is better or spray on ?

[@charliemeis9841]

Great video, nice job

[@BakerBuilds]

Thank you!

[@PhilGlutting]

What would you use to protect the lure eyes if the blanks came with eyes already on them?

[@Curtis-l3y]

Any suggestions for bandit 100-300 style blanks?

[@BakerBuilds]

Craw pattern might be cool!

[@dwighthuth1171]

Are there any companies that make bill stickers? Bill stickers are basically tape that has been pre-cut to the shape of the top of the bill, bottom and edges of the bill based on the nose design of the lure. Would be very nice to have to make professional looking lures.

[@joshandhuntersadventures5046]

What mic are you using in the video?

[@SafestartNORWAY]

Hi Zach! Cool design! What type of top coat do you use?

[@BakerBuilds]

I use Alumi-UV 🤙

[@garrettsimmons2379]

This has really got my interest up. I noticed a name on the belly. How was you able to do that?

How do you seal the paint in

[@Baroque_Back_Mountain]

Hmmm.... Me: in my shop half a day to produce a hot MESS Zach: 12 minutes, perfect lure, AND time to spare for a brush cleaning tutorial. 😳

[@BakerBuilds]

Tim it helps when I speed up the boring parts and cut out all the spots I forgot what to say haha

[@relativechimp4235]

Question where do u gt your blanks

[@Jolly-bass-boy]

I’m looking for advice, I’m looking for a airbrush kit suitable for painting fishing lures, there’s so much on the market that I was hoping for advice from someone with experience, thanks 🙏

[@kjsoutdooradventures7705]

This inspired me into a new hobby. Do I have to have crazy ventilation. Is this doable outside? I know stupid question

[@BakerBuilds]

Most of my paints are water based so I don’t have an issue with that. However a lot of people do set up a spray booth that has ventilation. Not a good answer haha but I have not had any issues

[@timheilig6091]

You can put a filter on a box fan in front of you if you are worried about it.

[@Slam_lures8]

I don’t use thinner but I buy airbrush paint and I also just use water to clean it and I haven’t had a problem yet

[@stephenjohnson1221]

you should make a lure and stick some sequins on it to make a scale pattern.

[@troibandy2139]

Got a question for you. Just getting into airbrushing lures. I’ve decided to start using this pattern. However, I have a question about colors. Wanted to use fluorescent colors. Was thinking about using fluorescent pink, white, for main colors, with black for the specks. The other would use either fluorescent green, yellow, or magenta. Would those colors also be effective for lures? Thanks in advance!! BTW, your videos are AWESOME !!

[@BakerBuilds]

Troi Bandy I think anything is worth a try. Also bright colors are great for dirty water. Putting some different colors out there that the fish haven’t seen could produce some action. Won’t know till you try! And thank you! Means a lot 🙏

[@dustycustomlures]

Can i use toothbrush for speckles?

[@BakerBuilds]

For sure! I have used on before. Stiffer bristles is better 👍

[@terribleatfishing]

What are your favorite (Affordable) blanks?

[@BakerBuilds]

Check out Barlow's Tackle! Great blanks and great people

[@fishingwithhoffman7365]

Do you thin your createx paints other than the metallics? Or you shoot straigt out of the bottle?

[@BakerBuilds]

On some paints I do thin with a little water. But most I don’t. What PSI are you spraying at?

[@fishingwithhoffman7365]

@@BakerBuilds 25psi

[@BakerBuilds]

@@fishingwithhoffman7365 Try bumping up the air pressure and see if that helps!

[@selfmadelure_1461]

Hi zach I made lure too You got a goood talented

[@BakerBuilds]

Thank you!

[@alexfrye5940]

So kind of a dumb question but what size hooks do you use

[@BakerBuilds]

Changes from bait to bait but on ones this size I usually use size 4 👍

[@claireo2769]

Are you able to use regular acrylic paint??

[@BakerBuilds]

Sure can. If your going to use it in the airbrush then it needs to be thinned down 👍

[@DanJR0422]

Createx is awesome paint

[@BakerBuilds]

Agreed!

[@BJCP]

How much time does it take to do a full build from raw materials to finished?

[@BakerBuilds]

Depends on the bait I guess. And the tools you have haha

[@BJCP]

You know what you need to clean the paint out of the air brush bowl? A cleanable foam insert the same size of the air brush bowl on a stick.

[@fishingwithhoffman7365]

My paints are kinda old. So they are thick. I can't just shoot them straight out of the bottle with iwata eclipse. Maybe i should thin the whole bottles down some and shake the snot out of them. But it looks like in the videos i watch no one is even mixing there paints to thin them. Also like.of i use white it sticks inside of my gun. I gotta flush the heck out of it

I enjoy doing it more then making the money. So it kinda depends on the scale that you are going after. For me the hobby is supporting itself and thats all I need haha
