I have used a few bottles of it. My only problem with it is that it seams to trap bubbles pretty good. It will start to crytalize much qucker than my other finishes at lower temps so you really need to keep it at around 70 for the best results. For me in Ohio in the winter getting anything in my house at a 70 is a little tough.... I do like the way it flows and "sticks" where you put it. The problem is the bubbles. This is just my opinion and I am sure others will chim in as well. The only way to tell for sure is to try it for yourself and see.

We have guys coming from other states. Mark Crouse will be there. If you haven't seen his work, it is truly amazing. I think we even have a builder from Connecticut coming. Bill Eshelman is our organizer. We are having breakfast on March 12 at Gulliver's Truck stop to work out a few more details such as food, judges for the rods, etc. Our major gathering is April 9th at Sippo Lake in Canton, OH. There is also a short ad about this in the most recent issue of RodMaker. If you are interested, contact me or Bill as we would love to have you.
