Why is the front edge so buggered up? Hint; do not cast it in the parking lot!

What me worry.
It was basically a super strike popper shape. I will tell you exactly what I used. Val oil, krylon primer, createx paint, u-pol clear, and mirrorcoat epoxy. Glad you got some use out of it and appreciate you telling me it actually caught something and the epoxy didn't come off in the shape of the plug. P.
