Tom, when you put a coat of 811 cp on a rod, do you turn it on your dryer or just leave it on the rack? I am just trying to figure out how much you are putting on not to have to wipe of excess or have drips. Thanks, Bill. PS: go the back issues the other day Re: 811 CP

Well, I don't have to turn it and it doesn't drip. But I do put on enough to turn the threads uniformly dark. That's about the best I can do without being able to show you in person. I get the threads wet, completely saturated, but not dripping wet. By the time I reach the tip most guide I find that I do not have to turn or rotate it. Takes maybe, 3 or 4 minutes to coat all the wraps I guess. ............. Re: 811 CP

When ever I use color presever I alwas rotate my rod while appling cp. this way i can force out any air pockets that could be traped. while the rod is rotateing I can remove any excess cp that well form on the botton of the rod Good Luck Bob Re: 811 CP

Bill, No need to turn the rod. Some color preserver's , like the solvent based ones for silk thread ask that you turn the rod for uniform saturation. #811 does ask for saturation of the threads as Tom explains, but no need for turning. It should not be dripping, is the point, really. I suppose if you do get too eager and form a 'drip' , gently daub off the excess with a lint free paper like lab filter paper or as some rod shops use lint free coffee filters for a variety of clean up uses.

Drops of CP forming on the bottom of the wraps? Gee fellows how much are you putting on there? I just load my brush and make a couple revolutions and that's it. No muss no fuss and no drops of CP pooling or dripping anywhere. Somebody needs to make a video showing these different application techniques. Re: 811 CP

Maybe I am too used to the flex coat CP and will change the way I use the 811. I guess less is best! Do like the 811 better. Thanks guys! Bill Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
