Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Apply 6 ml of epoxy lure paint evenly over the entire surface of the lure blank using a fine brush, then allow it to dry for 25 minutes to a hard gloss.
  2. Step 2: Securely attach the Owner brand treble hook to the lure blank’s hook eye using 3 ml of super glue and hold firmly for 1 minute.
  3. Step 3: Wrap 50 cm of lure tape tightly around the shank of the hook and the adjoining lure blank area, overlapping slightly to ensure full coverage and durability.
  4. Step 4: Trim any excess tape edges with scissors for a clean finish and press the tape down firmly to avoid peeling.
  5. Step 5: Let the lure sit for 20 minutes before handling or fishing to ensure all adhesives are fully set.
