Your Mold Terra Rough effect powder paint – earth brown textured
Code: YM/1007-80Product detailed description
Your Mold Terra Rough effect powder paint is a polyester powder for coating lead jig heads, pilkers and fishing weights. The earth brown textured shade produces a textured Rough finish.
Choose 80 g or 1000 g. Both packs contain the same shade. You are buying powder paint; the pictured jig head and hook are not included. Rough describes the finished coating texture, so its surface should not be judged by the gloss of smooth metallic shades.
An effect colour does not mean neon or glow-in-the-dark. This product is not described as NEON-UV fluorescent paint or as having afterglow. Read our guide to coatings, fluorescence and glow.
Greater mechanical durability than the more brittle NEON-UV shades. These effect paints use a tougher coating base for normal wear on jig heads and pilkers. Clean metal, film thickness and correct curing all affect the result. Abrasion resistance and flexibility under impact are different properties; an effect powder coating does not provide the flexibility of a rubber-style coating.
We recommend a white base coat, but it is optional. The effect powder can also be applied directly to clean, heated metal. In the SAF workshop, we use a thin white base as an additional cushioning layer between the lead and the effect finish. Choose a compatible Your Mold white powder paint – White variant and test the complete coating process on one piece before starting a batch.
Application procedure
- Clean, degrease and completely dry the casting. Remove burrs, oxidation and release-agent residue.
- Fluff the powder. Keep the white base and effect powder in separate containers; use gentle airflow in a fluidising cup.
- Heat the lead section evenly in a dedicated electric workshop oven or with a heat gun, following the paint instructions and allowing for casting size.
- When using a white base, briefly dip the hot head in the white powder and immediately afterwards in the effect colour. Without a base, dip it directly into the effect powder. Gently tap off excess, keep the film thin and leave attachment eyes clear.
- Allow the coating to flow, then complete curing according to the technical sheet for the chosen system. Actual metal temperature and time matter; do not reuse a universal schedule from a different paint. Retain the specified Rough texture.
- Allow to cool, then check adhesion, appearance and functional openings. Test one part before coating a batch.
Choose any clear protective coating according to compatibility and the coating instructions. It may change the sheen, pearlescent effect or Rough texture.
For the heaviest use, we recommend a rubber-style coating. For large sea-fishing weights, Magic Eye weights and carp leads exposed to repeated impacts against rocks, choose a suitable rubber-style lead coating. Its flexible shell accommodates deformation of the soft lead better. Coverage depends on surface area, shape and film thickness rather than a fixed number of pieces per pack.
SAF workshop tip: a rubber base with effect-colour speckles
On larger castings, first apply a shell of black rubber-style lead coating. While its surface is still warm and soft, add a light dusting of effect powder through a fine sieve or in small pinches dispensed with a dry spatula. Gentle reheating according to the coating instructions lets the coloured particles melt into the surface. The rubber shell provides the protective base, while the effect powder creates speckles or patches. Use compatible coatings and test adhesion and appearance on one casting first.
Safety when coating lead castings
- Use effective ventilation, avoid breathing powder dust and follow the paint safety sheet. Wear appropriate eye, hand and respiratory protection.
- Handle hot parts with suitable tools over a heat-resistant surface. Keep the workshop oven and equipment separate from food preparation.
- Avoid unnecessarily overheating the hook. Fit plastic inserts and glued eyes after cooling; keep eyes, passages and moving joints clear.
- Do not eat, drink or smoke when handling lead. Clean up dust and wash your hands afterwards. This concerns coating finished castings; pouring molten lead requires separate safety precautions.
Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
What is included?
One pack of Terra Rough paint in the selected 80 g or 1000 g size. The jig head, hook, coating equipment and any additional coatings are sold separately.
Does the shade change with pack size?
No. Both sizes on this card contain the same Terra Rough powder; only the amount changes.
Is a white base coat required?
No. The effect powder can be applied directly to prepared, heated metal. We recommend a white base as an additional layer based on our workshop experience; it does not replace the flexibility of a rubber-style coating.
Are effect paints as brittle as NEON-UV?
No. They use a tougher base for normal mechanical wear. For the hardest impacts and large sea-fishing weights, we recommend a rubber-style coating, optionally finished with effect-powder speckles.
Is this NEON-UV or glow-in-the-dark paint?
This is not the NEON-UV fluorescent range and has no declared afterglow. The textured Rough finish describes the appearance of the cured surface.
Why do the powder and coated head look different?
Loose powder and the fused coating have different reflection and texture. The photograph is a digitally edited illustration; lighting and your screen also affect colour appearance.
