joetheplumber Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 Ran across this the other day and I thought some of you lure builders may be interested in it. It looks promising to me but I don't know nothing about building. .lol http://www.ecoadvanceproducts.com/products/wood-finishes/call-coat/call-coat-quart.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobP Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 It's an oil-modified water based coating. Personally, I'd be concerned about anything with oil reacting with a solvent based topcoat, and of any water based product intended to protect wood from water intrusion. But it depends on what you want a raw wood coating to do. If it's just to prevent wood grain from rising when hit with water based paint, that's one thing. If you want it to add durability to the finish and act as further protection against water intrusion into the wood, that's different. So I have a "wait and see" attitude.

Skeeter Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 Oil based anything is not good. Oil messes with too many things. Plus it is hard to clean up. If your clearcoat is put on properly then polyurethane works just fine. Skeeter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 But, on the bright side, it will call birds to your lures! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecoadvance Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Hey Guys. I apologize if responding to this thread is out of line but I am with Eco Advance who manufactures Call Coat and Craft Coat. We noticed some traffic to our site coming from this thread so I wanted to check it out. I wanted to let you guys know that our product is not your typical Oil-Modified Urethane (OMU) . . . it contains 100% pure Linseed Oil blended with a waterborne urethane. We heat each to a different temperature and flash them together so they never separate and there is no need to introduce a solvent. All that said, I'm not sure how well it will work on fishing lures but, if any of your are interested in trying it out let me know and I'll be glad to send a free sample to the first 10 guys who respond. I would really appreciate the opportunity to have experienced lure builders test it for us. Once again, I apologize if reaching out in this manner is against forum policy and I look forward to having our product put to the test. rick@ecoadvanceproducts.com 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
