Before flexcoat an all those nice epoxies we used to use Zip guard urethane as a rod finish.I still have some of my old ones an the stuff is still holding up.a few cracks at the guide feet but the stuff went on easy and I'd use 2 to 3 coats of it. rods got beat with all the use an the stuff held up fine. these new finished that meet the VOC regs don't hold up at all . recoat every couple years an redo as needed. Try a thined coat or 2 then a reg coat. might make it last longer. Ron
