-some tail wraps look good, others look like I've never seen one before
-painted over some scales by mistake (there is a one side scaled plug)
-and of course the mandatory abundance of dust and bubbles!

Clear coat....just to sumrise I've had good success with it so far....it makes my crappy paint jobs, mismatched grommets, and warped tail loops look much better. 
I'm going out to test swim a bunch of metal lips right now and hopefully they don't come in like buzz baits....they look good though  Out of about 50 or so plugs I'll have maybe 15-20 worthy of gifting out if I'm lucky.....

It's not the bait

"WOW you're being hard on yourself"
You're right, thats why I leave all the blemishes (no nail polish or sharpie repairs). I want to see the mistakes again and again so as not to forget and repeat the same mistakes. you would think I have two hooves instead of hands.
