wondering whats the best material to go with or paint line to go with when painting a reel got it all tore down about to sand and just curious all the resurch ive done people are just rattle caning it with auto paint or rustolium stuff i wanted to airbrush it but just not 100 percent sure what paint to go with

 

If you prep it right, I'm sure any paint will work. It's the top coat I would be concerned most about. I've done reels with Devcon 2 Ton epoxy topcoat that turned out pretty good, but you need a rotisserie to get an even coat. It also builds up pretty thick which might not work with a compact baitcaster. Did my Abu C4 and it worked fine though.

 

BTW, I used regular latex based airbrush paints... I think Createx.

thanks i did createx it worked good thanks for the info about devcon 2
