The Best Way I Have Found To Paint Axel Pegs

Handmade Wooden Toy Car Axel Pegs In A Shop Made Drying Rack For the cars I make, I always add a bit of color to the hubs. Through experimenting, I have discovered that when painting the axel pegs, dipping them in the paint produced the best results. Spraying even with an airbrush was too messy. When I used a brush, metallic paints would soak into the end grain and leave the metallics on the top. I would need to add a second coat after they dried to get the proper color.

The result is one coat of paint and a lot less work. The pegs do usually need to cure overnight. This method also works for dowels when I use dowels for axels.
