Here goes. I use Sys. 3 clear coat.
Seal Wait 1 week
Prime. Wait 1 week
Paint. Wait 1 week
Install belly grommets, eyes, nose grommet if needed.
Install on my thru wire spinners I have 2 which hold 8 to 10 plugs total. Epoxy, spin, and if needed apply 2nd coat, which I prefer to do, after first is dry and scotch brite pad and wipe clean with iso. alcohol
Metal lips get a flat lip put thru a few to times while they are spinning to make sure no sawing is needed after it sets up. Only once in a blue moon saw comes out.
install lips and finish wiring.
Done. I like a plug wired after epoxy. Much cleaner and precision look to them. I am not changing my way anymore. This is how I will do it till I give it up. Spent a lot of time getting comfortable with this way. One can spend a life time switching back and forth. Got to settle on your technique, and products eventually and stick to it. Makes it more enjoyable to know what you are going to do
