Dave those wraps are sweet. I seems you epoxy over the completed guide wrap. I've been light coating the undewraps then 2-3 more after the wrap is done. Pending on the outcome. Do you use any CP on the nylon thread. The honey wraps blue ,black and white look nice and braight.

Yes, no need to epoxy underwraps 1st, usually 2 coats will do the trick. I try to plan my colors so I don't need to use cp. Had a few bad experiences with cp...  I avoid whenever possible.
