[#505000]I have set up quite an impressive "tackle shop" in the room my pet birds used to occupy. Along with my shop I have a "jigs only" toaster oven. I find baking my powder paint Jigs really locks the paint onto the head better than a quick heat and coat. [/#505000]
[#505000][/#505000]
[#505000]I've also been playing and found a "pre-bake" will get them hot enough to dip without worrying about melt or soot. [/#505000]
[#505000][/#505000]
[#505000]Other than highlights and specialty work I have found I really don't like the vinyl paint much. The ones I use don't hold their pigment very well and even thinned I feel like I am trying to paint with phlegm. [/#505000]
[#505000][/#505000]
[#505000]Anymore I do a base of my chosen color in powder and highlights, eyes, ect in Vinyl.[/#505000]
