Isopon 182 isn't bad and adheres to most surfaces. And tester pot of white suffices for the white collar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobba Posted August 23, 2020 Report Share Posted August 23, 2020 Paint them. Print photo of pigeon on A4 paper. Take to B&Q paint mixing dept for sample pots of both shades of grey. (They scan colours to get matching colour mix) obviously you don't say why you need it, just looking for 'pigeon grey colours!. White emulsion for the bars. Cheaper than new purchase.

WalkedUp Posted August 24, 2020 Report Share Posted August 24, 2020 I refreshed my wood pigeon decoys by mixing my children’s acrylic paint by eye. Thy ended up looking like a stock doves in a bad drag act. Still worked fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalkedUp Posted August 24, 2020 Report Share Posted August 24, 2020 I’m not homophobic, I happily shoot gay pigeons and straight pigeons all the same. I don’t have a TV so cannot comment on that assuming it is scheduled broadcasting and not a feature film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wymberley Posted December 4, 2020 Report Share Posted December 4, 2020 Buy just one more lot and have done with it - Flexicoy - not as good as the original version, but still the best. They are lighter (weight) now than they were but the weight is still the one disadvantage should you have to carry them any distance. Mind you, having said that I've just noticed the original post date - must be sorted by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
