fatfingers Posted April 8, 2007 Report Share Posted April 8, 2007 Anyone ever try using deck sealer as a way of sealing the wooden hard baits prior to painting? I have some Thompson's deck sealer and I was thinking about giving it a try. Its is supposed to penetrate well and render the wood waterproof. Anyone ever try using deck sealer as a way of sealing the wooden hard baits prior to priming/painting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatfingers Posted April 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2007 I hadn't considered the possibility of wax as an ingredient. I was just sorta thinkin' out loud. I've tried the normal stuff and it works okay, but I'm always looking for something better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
