Anyone that are using carbon fiber grips, say from NFC. Do you finish them with epoxy or just leave them raw? If you finish them, what are you using? Re: Carbon fiber grips

NFC has two types of CF grips, the regular CF polyurethane foam core grips, and the soft touch CF grips. I coat the regular cf CF grips with Permagloss but not with epoxy. The soft touch CF grips I use as are.

I have carbon fiber grips on 6 of the rods I've built. I've left all but one of them in their raw factory form. One of them, a split grip set on my drop shot rod, I coated with lay up epoxy and then sanded it smooth, and put a final top coat of Perma Gloss on it.
I really like the way it turned out. Below is a link to a picture of the rod I did it on. [www.rodbuilding.org] Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
