I have to be completely honest. I'm not sure where your going with the question. I use salt only as a sinking agent to the bait. It doesn't add a taste to the plastic regardless of what you've read. Flukes and sticks I want on the bottom get a butt load of salt and softener. Flukes I want to be worked on top get none at all. Any plastic that is worked on weights(Dropshot, jigs, spinnerbaits, ect) get little or none depending on how I want the plastic to fall on a pause and retrieve speed. There's a lot to be factored in, but you have the ability to control the plastic the way you want it. What baits are you looking at pouring? That helps a lot and determines more.

I agree. In my opinion you can't beat the finish DN gives you, but storing it can be a hassle. Partial loss of DN due to premature curing is acceptable to some and not so much for others. The finish of Solarez can't be compared to that of a lure coated with DN, but the ease of application, and about half the price of DN, it is acceptable to others. This is one of those things where you have to make personal choices. That's why Baskin-Robbins has 31 flavors of ice cream. just my , Ben
