dtrs5kprs Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 You can use it between coats/details (but will probably be unhappy with it) but not as a clear coat. It is not waterproof, and will not protect the bait or the paint job. Stick with Devcon, E-tex, Flex Coat for you clear coat(s). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apb Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 Stick with epoxy. I tried their clear coat. Might last a trip or too before the finish looks like crap. Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badfish03 Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 Go with a clear 20 minute set time epoxy, most of the 5 minute varieties yellow with exposure to the sun or age. Also 5 minutes is not enough time to work with alot of the time. No matter what you decide to use once you have a couple done test them in a window or outside in full sun. Let them sit for a day or two and see how much they yellow or whether they stay crystal clear. Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
