FishingBuds Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 some may have seen my post on my color preserver free zen, well it seemed fine, no clumpy and so i used it and everything was fine, but today when i went to apply the finish, i noticed on every wrap this stuff bleed-ed off onto the rod, looks like a crappy job now, anyway to fix this, what can cut into it and clean it off the rod up to my wraps? This really sucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobP Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 The problem is how to remove the goof without also removing the underlying rod finish. If it isn't too far off the wraps, I'd probably epoxy over it But if you want to try taking it off, I'd suggest either naphtha or denatured alcohol. They are less volatile solvents and so less liable to screw up the blank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattman Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 I use U-40's color preserver. Denatured alcohol works well for removing any CP that happens to get out past the wrap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
