river_bum Posted November 21, 2016 Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 Hello all, New to the forum. Had a question about finishing on metal casting spoons. Was wondering if anybody could point me in the right direction on products that have worked for them in the past. I handmake a few different styles of casting spoons for trout/salmon ect and wanted to see if anyone could recommend a good epoxy/urethane or clear coat to use as a finish. I have tried a few marine grade metal finishes and applied them by both dipping and brushing. dipping is my preferred method of application but I'm open to suggestion. any help would be appreciated! Thanks i advance... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobP Posted November 21, 2016 Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 Dick Nite Spoons is a TU member and sells lacquer paints and an excellent moisture cured urethane topcoat product named S81 Fishermun's Lurecoat at a discount price to TU members if you use a special URL to visit his website. He manufactures spoons, so you can bet the stuff works well. If you are using it as a hobby builder, I recommend that you read posts on its storage and handling. S81 Is hard to store without beginning to harden and most of us use the Tap The Can method of dispensing and storing it to avoid the problem. Sorry, I don't have the URL handy on this computer so maybe someone can chime in with it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
