Product Information

Oh, and don't on any account use plastikote varnish - it's not waterproof no matter what they say....

Float paint comes in a variety of colors and shades, making it easy for anglers to match the color of their float to the conditions of the water they're fishing in. For example, brightly colored floats may be more visible in murky or dark water, while muted or natural colors may be more effective in clear or shallow water. It may seem daft putting a matt varnish over a gloss finish but that last coat of flourescent gloss certainly makes a hell of a light reflective and therefore visible difference under a matt varnish - best of both worlds. From this you will work out that I don't hold with the theory around ' flash ' caused by the addition of varnish, and apart from anything else my varnish is semi matt....

Float paint allows anglers to customize their floats by adding color or patterns that can help to make them more visible to the fish or blend in better with the surrounding water. The paint is typically made from fast-drying enamel or acrylic that is designed to adhere to the surface of the float, providing a durable and long-lasting finish. Can be used to paint many things, not just fishing floats. Very strong and hard wearing enamel paint. Leave everything to dry for 5 minutes then clamp the swivel loop between the pliers teeth again and carefully paint a layer of varnish on to your float. I have completed my floats like this before but to make it completely waterproof allow the varnish to dry for 24 hours then paint another layer of varnish on just to completely seal it, again allowing it to dry for 24 hours.

So you have all of your materials, the next thing to do is to cut a piece of Balsa between 4-5 inches long. This Zuperpaint is enamel based. Until dry can be removed with white spirit or similar. Can be overcoated if necessary with clear lacquer to create a very hard wearing finish. Firstly, take the correction fluid and apply it to the end of your float without the swivel covering about 4-5cm of the balsa. Allow this to dry for a couple of minutes.Pole Floats: Pole floats are a type of fishing float that is commonly used in pole fishing. They are typically small and highly sensitive, enabling the angler to detect even the slightest bites from fish. Pole floats are attached to the fishing line using a sliding attachment and are used to present a bait or lure to fish at a specific depth. One point ; In the preparation stage it is imperative to make sure the areas to be painted are kept free of ANY form of handling. Fingers are greasy and do nothing to help long term. The same goes for dust, so I paint in as controlled an environment as possible. Dust is everywhere and most you cannot see !
