The code "JULY-4TH" isn't working for me. Tried "July-4th" also. Anyone get it to work?

Placing an order tonight. Thanks!

I have the 9. Would definitely like to have something faster for applying.

Put another coat while doing my tiger underwrap. It's full of dust and bubbles so I'm done with it. Gotta start somewhere. I'll post pics after I'm done with the tiger if it actually turns out ok. Should be moving my glass blowing shop here soon then I'll have a more dust/rabbit hair free shop to build in.

The second coat went on much better.

My hands did touch that section while wrapping/packing that section(cooked hotdogs during the end of the wrap). Taking all of this into account for the next builds. Hopefully it'll help other people who are just beginning. I'll hit it lightly with my gray pad tomorrow before recoating. Don't clean that with denatured alcohol?

Applied cp yesterday and let dry overnight. Applied epoxy this morning. Room temp 70f. The only place that's having the issue is where the blank is exposed(also has the cp applied to it). The solid wraps that hold cross in place are doing fine. Also applied a first coat of epoxy to the butt wrap(tiger) cp applied to it day before yesterday. No problems there. Contamination is a good possibility a

Gonna do some practice stuff on an old rod. I have thread master also and some prokote high build on order that I was gonna try for tiger wrap base layers. Probably should have started by doing this but it's hard to resist jumping right in.

Actually it's lookin a little worse now. Definitely not leveling out. Thought I might have applied too much so I took some off with my brush but it's still pulling away.
Forum: rodboard

I have a couple of questions. When doing a small open cross wrap, do you put cp on just the thread or around the whole blank? I went around the whole blank and the epoxy is pulling away from itself in some spots. Is this what you guys call fish eyes? I was able to fix most of it. Might try another coat of epoxy tomorrow. Using cromaseal and prokote medium build.

Thanks for all of the advice. I'm going to use the set on my first build. Just wanted some input for the next ones. Thanks everyone.

Ordered a guide set for my first build, 7' 8-12# spinning. The guides are pretty big. 30,20,16,10,8,7,6 I'm throwing a cI4+ 3000 for speckled trout, flounder, reds. Any suggestions on smaller/better guides? I got Fuji with Alconite rings right now.
