is a decent spray clear used over water based paints. A few coats. Pretty durable. I often use it as a scratch coat before epoxy. Not as good as epoxy though. Stinks to high heaven. I don't envy you.

Ha! Thats funny. I just saw all the replies to this almost a year later. I did get all the lures coated and dryed since i used a paint on epoxy jig finish that dries fast and I had to stay up all night to finish. Learned my lesson though. I gave my step brother one of my lures as a gift and when we were out fishing he had cast it out and when he reeled it in the paint was gone LOL! Must have forgot to clear coat that one. It was hilarious, I told him white was a great color anyway!
Re: Clear Coating 100 lures in two days, need advice.
This brings to mind many questions, but I'll only post a couple:
Could you not tell the difference between your lure with clear coat and one without? Of the relatively few lures that I have clear coated the difference was like night and day.
Secondly, have you heard from any of your customers that threw a painted lure and retreived a white one?
