I don’t see why you couldn’t but not sure how durable it would be . I never really worried about colour on the jig head too much . I sent you a Pm as well .

I find that there is little to no difference to just leaving them unpainted! They don’t look as pretty, but (in my opinion) hookup/bite rate is no different. Just like the “old days” when we used to make our own Kingfish jigs, plain old untouched stainless worked as good (or better) than fancy painted ones.

If you look through my posts you will find photos of my grandchildren painting all my jig heads. They are colour coded by weight. All done with nail polish. It kept them busy for ages. Now when I buy more they get in and paint them for me !  It stays on remarkedly well.  Does it make a difference to fishing. Probably not.
