Folks, where can I find a comprehensive discussion of when to use regular nylon thread with or without color preserver, vs NCP nylon thread - pros and cons, etc.? Thanks in advance. Re: Looking for Info on Thread and Color Preserver etc

It's strictly personal preference.

To answer your question, Do a search of this forum for all dates. Eg: color preserver, ncp thread, and so on Re: Looking for Info on Thread and Color Preserver etc

Best is to wrap some samples and view your results. If you really want your wraps to Pop, Use CP. If your after a more subdue look, No color preserver. Re: Looking for Info on Thread and Color Preserver etc

The three choices give you results that must be observed to understand differences. Additionally, the color of the blank has an effect as well. As mentioned above, doing some test sampling yourself is a clear way to determine what you prefer. Re: Looking for Info on Thread and Color Preserver etc

And don't forget the trick of wetting the wrap with Alcohol to mimic what it will look like with finish on it. Best wishes, Ron Schneider Schneider's Rod Shop Mountain Home, Arkansas [www.schneidersrods.com] mtnron40@yahoo.com 870-424-3381 Re: Looking for Info on Thread and Color Preserver etc

don't forget to consider the blank color (or paint or silver tape) under the wrap Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
