Gidday all. I've just finished my first lures,& totally loved making them.I used spray can paint on them but I now have an airbrush kit on the way. I've been online,& want to support aussie business where possible,but ridiculously, I can buy 6x 60ml created delivered from the U.S for $37 where it costs $43 from Sydney.Go figure. I've googled and yellow paged for suppliers in Toowoomba and Brissy but found none. Anyone bought these in a store? Ill be going to lure expo to stock up but wanted paint before if possible. Cheers.Marty

here you go and they are great to buy of quick postage,also look at the Auto-Air colours also a bit dearer but look good
click on short cut Air Brush Megastore they are in South Australia http://www.airbrushmegastore.com/index.php

Thanks Dave but that's one of the Aussie stores I have checked.If needed quick they'd be best but buying on eBay I can get same six paints for $37 & they're $42 with get+post. I'm actually hoping someone knows of a real store that sells them,not online,to save post costs. Thanks anyway mate.

Not a problem mate I also looked around and before I brought my paint they was recomended to me by a few lure makers for paint plus other gear,yes ebay is cheaper but you wait longer,only wish like you a shop close to me that sells the paint be great. Id say you have been told to wear a mask when sanding timber and cutting it out and when painting Do you have a Bunnings near you they sell the the clear stuff [cant think of name getting old haha] to make bibs

Cheers Brad.Yeah,aren't we all (getting old.haha). Polycarbonate might be the stuff you'rethinking about. Im halfway between Gatton and Esk,which is great place to live but sucks when I need something unusual. Got a Gunning's at Toowoomba .Takes an hour each way and about $40-50 in juice so i may as well buy the bastards online. Yeah i know about sanding meranti,as i used it as a boatbuilder in the 80's,& you definitely cough up your toenails if you dont wear a mask but thanks. :youbeauty
