Adding Sparkle to Side of Hard Bait ?

Featured Replies

  • Super User

I say some nice jars of glitter at a craft store that would be ideal when you want to sprinkle on a little extra glitter / flash on the side of a hard bait (i.e. walking bait) . I would imagine you would spray some of clear adhesive on the sides of the hard bait first , sprinkle on the glitter , then finish with a slight top coat of the same adhesive spray ? ... What is your process including what type of light spray adhesive do you recommend for adding glitter to hard baits  ? ...  Thanks in advance !

I cheat and use a nail polish that is clear but has glitter in it. Then I use a clear coat to seal it. I am just starting out so it’s probably not the best choice but it works.

I ended up finding some spray clear sealant from a craft store that dries clear ... Light spray then sprinkle some glitter on the hard bait  then a light final spray top coat .

Kraylon clear spray Sprinkle on the glitter let dry then add a over coat. Been doing for years, but today's colors already have micro glitter.

Thin coat of fingernail polish should work.

There are some amazing bargains in sparkly nail polish at the Dollar Tree that work well for just that purpose. My wife teases me that I have more varieties of nail polish than my she does.
