    nail polish

    While shopping with wife, she was grabbing a new bottle so I was looking at some colors and wondering about quick fix for some scraped jig heads, spinnerbait heads with a few of the basic colors. Anybody done this with some luck?

    I use the clear for re-sealing balsa baits after toothy critters get hold of them.

    Yes it does but I warn you make sure you have a female with you to buy it. I had a guy try to pick me up once at CVS when I bought some by myself.

    It's just your looks and how you carry yourself.

    Yep, ALL of the above!

    I made a bunch of striper jigs for my son and put some clear glitter polish over the powder paint. Not sure if it makes a difference but they sure look nice.

    Halloween is the most wonderful time of year for finding useful colors of nail polish.
