TheSilverFox Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Had a guy ask me about doing some repaints on some shad rap and I've never done them before. I've heard they can be difficult. Is there anything I need to be aware of before starting? These are balsa wood baits. I use 2 part epoxy for a top coat. I can thin it down and keep some of the weight off if I need to. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musky Glenn Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 I haven't had a problem with #5's and epoxy. They work great, haven't tried smaller sizes. Musky Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cougarftd Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) I've done them (#5)with D2T and they will not be as buoyant ...I prefer MCU on shad raps Edited November 19, 2014 by Cougarftd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
