You can clear it and it will come back looking brand new. If you use epoxy and your like me and run your crank into rocks, wood or just try to make it hit everything you can, it might chip the epoxy on the lip and you could end up with even an uglier lure then you started with. Just a though.

I had the same problem when I first started. I use the bottom of a soda can or in some cases a beer can, LOL. I have an old wooden stick I use to mix with. I have a 1 minute mixing rule, mix the hell out of it for a minute, the bottom of the can is a prefect mixing boil. Don't worry about the bubbles they'll come out. Another rule I have is, I never clear no more than two lures at a time (note I fish big crankbaits) because I mix for so long the D2 starts gitting thick about the time I finish brushing on the 2nd lure. Sence I started following my two rules I have never had another lure come out tacky. Maybe this will be some help also.

Thank' Ben, I've been using clear and doing the same also, but Hobby Lobby was out of clear so I bought white. I'm sitting here now thinking I will use foil tape under the white to help out. What do ya"ll think? Crappie pattern.

When water sliding a photo copy, what color decal is better, White or Clear?
