Last I knew it was available from Bingham Enterprises, if Karen does not have it she should be able to point you in the direction of where to get it

OK, lots of hype on a new product, but what does it have to offer over our "traditional" products? I would like to hear from some who have used it, what they liked, what might be the other side. Leveling, time to fully cure, bubble dispersal? Too soon to have experience on UV , right?

seems the ones that carry Gen 4 are not on the sponsor list. But Andy Dear is the one who is behind it and if you liked lamar products in the past you may want to at least try it. Andy knows his stuff.

Thanks for the information. I tried to get on Bingham’s web site a couple of times but couldn’t. Have to try one of the others.

I have used it on my Last 2 Builds and I like it a lot. I was getting more proficient with Pro Kote, but I feel like this product handles better for me. The results I have gotten on my guide wraps are excellent in 2 coats. My Label finishing was also better however it still needs work. Full disclosure I am still learning, only 12 Rods and Misc Repairs.

I ordered it from Get Bit Outdoors. But I’ll have to wait a while for it because I ordered some guides that are on backorder and they are going to wait to ship them together.
