paint questions

[bearfish]

1. Why do most of you guys like powder paint?
2. Are there different types of powder paint?
3. Is there any types that you can not use on jigs?
4. Where is the cheapest place to buy it?

I am a newbie at powder paint and don't know a thing about it. I looked online and found some suppliers but most of them were priced at 10-12 dollars a pound. That seems like a lot of paint and the price is too steep for me to buy several colors at once. I have seen protec on the doitmolds website and the price was better but the selection is limited.

Thanks

First, welcome bearfish to Jigcraft.
I'm fairly new at powder paint also. I have been using ProTec paints, and there are a lot of different choices.. The following links should get you started..

10-12 $ is a decent price for powder by the pound,and your right,thats alot of paint.When we buy the pounds its usually split between 3-4 guys.If you want some smaller batch's Crazy have a great selection of 1-2 oz sizes,so you can get lots of colors cheap..
