If you have etex, why not try heat sealing with etex/DA instead of the spar/turps?

Thin 60/40 etex and DA. I heat AYC plugs to 250 for about 30 minutes. Using a large syringe to suck up the epoxy /Da and inject into the through wire hole till it fills up the whole inside of the plug and then coat the outside with an acid brush. Let em drip and when the dry spots show up, give it a quick recoat. Makes a very durable plug body.
