Dazedrodeo Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 I was looking at a lot of posts regarding sealers and they all say use this use that. I guess you use what ever you can get your hands and what evers on sale. Now for my question I have a lot of super glue laying around, can I use it to seal the wood then paint or is it just used to test the bait then reseal with some other sealer:huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 I've used the runny crazy glue by Zap to seal some balsa baits I'd stripped before I repainted them. After I applied the crazy glue (I may have done 2 coats of crazy glue, but I don't remember) and it dried (very quickly, which is why I used it), I sanded it with 400 grit, then primed with Krylon white primer, and painted with my waterbased airbrush colors. I don't know if I could have just used a white base without the primer. I'm used to using the Krylon primer, so I just did it the same way I'd done other lures that I'd sealed with something else, and it worked fine. I have had no problems with the lures, and I did them last summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redg8r Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 Super glue (cyanoacrylate) sp? is a great sealer IMO if you can get it affordably. The thinnest viscosities will penetrate the wood and form a plastic like seal. I have used a polyethylene grocery bag to quickly work it into the grain & sand it with high grit like you suggested. Dries quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
