Just be careful. spray it outside or with a spray booth. Respirator is a must. It can kill you. A lot of guys here know what it is and won't mess with it. Eben is just a maniac.

No...I don't need it that bad Tagger....I found some stuff on-line I am going to try! Non-toxic, water based and it is supposed to be great sprayed over painted wood surfaces and be durable in saltwater....ever hear of Supershield? It is a flouropolymer coating? Waterbased or solvent based...what is the difference?

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Bigfish, i have seen that supershield before and almost ordered some to see what it was like.. I ended up trying something else which i wasnt happy with, then stated using the stuff I am curently using.. The surfhog swimmer that i made for the "Am I crazy??" swap is sprayed with the stuff I am using now.. if you poke it with something like a rock, or something else blunt, it will flex, allowing the wood to dent a bit and the paint & clear coat stays intact.. You do have a dent, but the coating is still there..However, a hook point will pierce it if its pushed straight in.. with E-tex, you hit a rock and your screwed. Take a poke at my swimmer and you will see what I mean.. When you try the new stuff, let me know if you think its better- I am by no means married to this stuff I am using now, and would make the switch if it was better.

Geez guys I thought I was having problems protecting the stupid aluminum thing. I am just starting to finish some wooden plugs and now I read this post and wonder what I should use when I get to the top coat. I hate too many options. Wish everyone agreed on a certain thing. Guess that would be too easy. Paul
