Prášková barva na olovo NEON-UV – žlutá (Yellow)
Kód: YM/7184-4Detailní popis produktu
Your Mold NEON-UV fluorescent powder paint is a finishing material for lead castings, including jig heads, fishing weights and pilkers. Apply it after casting, deburring and cleaning the metal; protect all functional openings.
Shade: NEON-UV Yellow – yellow. Choose 80 g or 500 g; both weights contain the same shade and coating.
Fluorescent does not mean glow-in-the-dark. This range needs suitable illumination and has no phosphorescent afterglow. See our guide to neon, fluorescence, UV and glow.
For this range, start with a standard white powder base to provide an even, light background for the fluorescent shade. Select the white option in the Your Mold standard powder range. Handle the neon effect layer gently; it does not replace a tough rubber-style shell.
Application: hot jig head → white base → immediately NEON-UV
- Clean, degrease and completely dry the lead head. Remove burrs; fit plastic parts and glued eyes only after heating is finished.
- Heat the metal evenly in a dedicated electric workshop oven or with a heat gun. Our original general guide uses a preheat of about 180 °C; adjust temperature and time to the particular powder and head size.
- Briefly dip the hot lead section into fluffed white powder paint. Lift it out and gently tap off the excess. The powder starts melting on the hot metal.
- Immediately dip it briefly into the selected NEON-UV shade. Do not add a cooling stage between the two dips. Residual heat should flow the coloured powder into a continuous glossy film. Work quickly with thin coats; small heads lose heat faster.
- Finish melting and curing according to the technical sheets for the coating system. A glossy flow does not prove that curing is complete. Actual metal temperature and time matter, not just the oven setting. Then allow the part to cool.
- Check adhesion, even coverage and clear attachment eyes. Use a verified compatible clear protection system; see the epoxy option below.
About 200–220 °C: our original general SAF guide gives this range for the subsequent melting stage, not as a universal preheat for every NEON-UV coating. Follow the technical sheets for the complete system. Test one head first and assess it only after full cure and cooling.
A glossy finish and clear epoxy coating
The loose powder looks matt, but heat flows it into a smooth, glossy coating. For extra protection, consider a clear two-part epoxy coating intended for previously coated metal. Apply it only after the powder coating has fully cured and cooled, using a thin brushed coat or a brief dip if the resin manufacturer permits dipping. Follow its mixing ratio, working time and cure schedule; keep the attachment eye, hook point and bait keeper clear.
Test one sample for adhesion, appearance, impact resistance and retention of fluorescence. UV absorbers in a clear coating may change the effect. We have not yet verified a particular TopEpoxy resin for this combination. A clear casting resin is not automatically suitable as a thin dip coating.
The NEON technical sheet requires a compatible clear topcoat. Epoxy is therefore not presented as an automatically approved replacement. Do not simply reheat a finished two-coat head for an improvised third dip in clear powder. The supplier permits controlled powder overcoating, but this requires coordinated intermediate and final curing of the complete system.
NEON-UV describes the fluorescent effect, not UV-lamp curing or phosphorescence. The supplier states limited UV and weather resistance; keep finished parts out of prolonged sunlight when not in use. A white base and compatible clear protection are part of the recommended coating approach.
A fluidising cup helps apply a thin, even coat. Match airflow to the powder and fill level; larger cups provide more working space. Fit plastic inserts and glued eyes after all heating is complete and the part has cooled.
Safety when coating lead castings
- Use effective ventilation, avoid breathing powder dust and follow the safety sheets for the paint and resin. Use 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.
- Heat the lead section and avoid unnecessarily overheating the hook. Fit heat-sensitive components after cooling; keep passages, attachment eyes and moving joints clear.
- Do not eat, drink or smoke while handling lead. Clean up dust and wash your hands afterwards. This procedure concerns coating a finished casting; pouring molten lead requires separate casting precautions.
Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
What is included?
The selected NEON-UV Yellow powder in an 80 g or 500 g pack. Molds, white base, clear coating and application equipment are sold separately. The pictured jig head and hook are examples and are not included.
Which base should I use?
Use standard white powder paint, then immediately dip into NEON-UV while the head is still hot. Complete curing and clear protection with a compatible coating system.
Does UV mean curing under a lamp?
No. This is a fluorescent effect coating applied with heat. It has no glow after the light is switched off.
How do I avoid a thick, uneven coating?
Use a clean part, even preheating, fluffed powder and brief dips. Tap off the excess and test one fully cured, cooled head before coating a batch.
