Men...I have spoken to Mudhole recently regarding Lumiseal. They were very informative about the discontinuing of the product following the purchase of Roddancer. Other than Permagloss, is there another one-part finish that is similar to Lumiseal? I saw where Bullard makes a C P Xtra. I also read that some guy was using Varethane Triple Thick. I just really liked how the Lumiseal was not quite as hot as Permaseal, less smell and a little higher build. Any direction would be greatly appreciated. Edited 3 time(s).

Angler's Workshop offers a single part finish although I can't recall the name of it at the moment.

Thank you men.
I like permagloss Mark...just liked the no smell of Lumiseal and it would also go right over the acrylic paint I use to write on blanks where PG eats it. Thank you Tom...I will check it out. Re: Lumiseal Replacement

Mike,
Apparently, U40 PermaGloss has become the go-to industry standard for blank finishing. After acquiring the proper technique, it applies easily, dries quickly, being humidity-catalyzed requires no mixing, and affords a fairly durable finish. I find it to be less durable than many make it out to be though. Also, due to its make-up including Zylene, it is very “hot” and one needs to be extremely cautious when handling. I have not tried Varethane Triple Thick but doubt it is any more durable and from experience with a number of other Varethane products, may require weeks if not months to FULLY cure, (if you can still smell it, it is still curing).

I always did like Permagloss but if you were lucky enough to get a bottle that wasn't partially solid and could use all of it, which was rare I switched to CpXtra and never had a problem since. Dennis J. Danku (Sayreville,NJ) Re: Lumiseal Replacement

I could not verify that Varathane Triple Thick was suitable for exterior (UV filter) use. Re: Lumiseal Replacement

I appreciate the feedback.
Tom...I checked out the Anglers Workshop one part finish. Thank you. Lynn and Dennis...does the C-P-XTRA have a strong smell? I believe that stronger the smell the higher the solvent ratio. Maybe? Thank you Michael. I read on here about the Varathane Triple Thick product. I just shot them an email regarding the UV protection, if any. Re: Lumiseal Replacement

It smells somewhat similar to permagloss, but not as strong, and the odor dissipates very quickly. I store it in he original bottle upside down in a baby food jar (in case of leakage) at room temp. I know for sure it keeps well like that for at least 2 years. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
