Like the other guys said, protects the paint so you don't have to repaint them as often. Also adds some extra protection to the wood. I end up giving away a bunch to friends as do many of the guys here. Knowing the plug will last longer makes it worth the effort to clear coat. This is especially true when using createx or other water based paints. Without an epoxy coat on top, createx will last about 45 minutes of hard fishing before it starts looking like chit. At least in the few tests I've done with it.
