Anybody try lacquer spray-paint to crown wooden arrows?If so what is your opinion on this method?

wastes a heckuva lot of paint.  better to dip if you want an opaque colored crown cap, or sticky wrap.

Well, I am on the other side of the "argument."
However, ya need to be sure your cresting and clear overcoat paints are compatable with your crown.

I spray mine mainly because I don't like dip tubes....  Just me.  I have actually gotten pretty good a getting the job done.

I do 95% carbon shafts so that also has something to do with it.....

For opague I use a thin coat applied with a foam brush.  Just actually did a set of AD Trad Lites with the woodgrain finish.  I wanted a darker upper shaft.  Just foam brushed on some Minwax stain.  Worked great.  You can still see the wood grain.

Good luck....

I use Rustolum brand paint. Spray the cap, coat with water base polly, crest with oil base enamel, another coat of polly then fletch..

I agree with JamesV.  Duco cement for nock and fletching also.

I agree with Rob on this one. Spraying wastes a lot of paint and never looks as good as a dip.

I'm playing around with wiped on leather dye.  So far so good but it is "muted" vs a paint dip.

 

 

That second picture doesn't do them justice.  There is a much better contrast in sunlight.

I have done a lot of arrows that way but the paint is not nearly as tough as bonhing. Anyway lately i have just been using various color stains that looks real cool too.
