Is it necessary to put on a clear coat (over paint) before epoxying plugs? What is it called-is it clear laquer? How much "roughing-up" is needed? Will this clear coat prevent fish-eyes on flouresents? please help.
some people do use clear coats over their paint and scuff to different degrees. i put epoxy directly over all paints including metalics and flouresents and have good results.
I thought maybe the clearcoat with added scuff woulkd result in a more durable finish as end result. A few of my plugs had problem
My problem is not waiting long enough after painting (airbrushing)--I think I apply to much paint at once instead of spraying multiple coats. A few plugs split their epoxy (not the wood). E-tex applied at less than 70 degrees could be the problem too. Is there a better grade of paint I should be using? Should creatix also be applied at 70 degrees?
I don't know about being necessary but if you do a scratch coat, it certainly will help give the epoxy something to grab ahold of.
The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
