Default airbrushing lures

If anybody is interested in taking on a new hobby.....reviving your old fishing lures with a new paint job is not only gratifying, but addictive. Here is a good starter set for cheap if you're interested.

I use a 30 gal. Craftsman cause that's what I already had. You only need anywhere from 10-20 psi, so, it doesn't have to be a big compressor. You can actually use cans of compressed air, but, that gets kinda spensive if you plan to paint alot.

Take the hooks off. You can save 'em if they're in good shape.
