Have any of you Bamboo fly rod builders ever tried putting a Epoxy like Thread Master over Spar Vanish if so how good does it work and does it tend to separate from each other after time. Glenn McMurrian Re: Epoxy coated over Spar Vanish

I also forgot to say that I am looking for a tuff spar that will hold the trim rings together for years to come Re: Epoxy coated over Spar Vanish

I can't figure out why you would want to use two different finishes on the same warps! Either one by itself will "hold the trim wraps together for years to come." Re: Epoxy coated over Spar Vanish

Glenn,
Not quite sure what you are trying to doing, but if you are refering to the thread epoxy over your guides/threads, on top of a Spar-varnish coated bamboo rod. I do that at times and have never found any problems. Most of the time I stick with all spar-varnish, but occassionally when pressed for time I use epoxy to do the threads, then coat the entire rod with spar. I would venture to say that one would be hard pressed to see the difference. Hope this helps. Larry Re: Epoxy coated over Spar Vanish

Thanks Larry that really helps as that is almost straight to the point of what I was trying to find out in the long term. Glenn McMurrian Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
