Pitbull Baits Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 OK I am set up to pour some jigs I got everything I need now. I hope thios is the last easy question I got for you guys. What do you use to glue in the weeedguards? Super glue or expoy? Then what kind of glue do I need to get? I got three majior big box hardware/lumberyard store near me so I got options lol.. Then do I need to scuff the hole the weedguard goes in after I powder coat it? If so what should I use to do this? Thanks for the info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 If my jigs don't have 3d or 2d eyes I use Loc-tite gel super glue. If they have eyes then I use D2T (Devcon 2 ton). You can use either one. The gel super glue will be ready in 24 hours to go fishing, the epoxy takes a good 2 days to dry and cure hard. Just my opinion. As far as gluing in the weedguards, after painting, just make sure you don't have any paint in the weedguard hole and you'll be fine. I use nylon pull pins when I paint my jigs with weedguard holes this way no paint gets into the hole. Once the jigs are cured in the oven, and cool just start gluing in the wedguards. Let dry thoroughly and go fishing. I'm sure there will be other comments as well. I'm in the process of trying another glue, mentioned by a member here on TU. I haven't gotten a chance to test it. I will give an update in a couple of weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
