Title: Baking jigs
Post by: hawgthumper on 09/08/15 17:14 UTC

Hey folks, it's been a while since I've powder painted any jig heads and I really can't remember just how long and at what temperature that I should bake my powder painted jigs. Thanks in advance.

Some jig armor paint says 400 10 minutes. 
But I do 325 for twenty.   Anything close should work fine
