Clearcoat / Sealer

Recommended Posts

I have been using a fiberglass resin for my clear coat. It is awesome stuff and cures in about 20 minutes or so. It  is USC fiberglass resin. I mix it in small batches and do about 6 lures at a time, brushing it on. I happen to have a pic in my phone that might help. Just to the right of the lure, you can see the can and lable. I hope it is ok to put a pic here for this purpose....

 

Any thoughts, degatives, comments?

If you like that stuff, you should love Solarez.  it is also a fiberglass resin, meant for repairs, and cures via UV light.

I dip my cranks, and they are ready to fish after three minutes in the UV fingernail light.  I have brushed it on, too, but I'm

 lazy and dipping is easier.  When my resin gets too low to dip, I'll brush.

Mark can solarez be used as a sealer applied directly to naked wood (after shaping but before painting) or is it only for a final clear coat?

I use it as a sealer on bare wood all of the time. I personally don't like the way it comes out as a clear coat but it works great for me as a sealer.
