Whats the best ? wish I knew .. Lots of guys will share what they are using . For me the best is still a quest .. Most all hard fished plugs could use a make over after a season, but if they are still catching ,, why bother ?

Hi and welcome...

I've been using Rustoleum Painters Touch. Just take your time use thin coats and give plenty of time between coats to dry (I had to learn the hard way).
