Cody - This question comes up often so we changed to options on our site to help alleviate the running guide issue. REC only differentiates sizes 4, 4.5, & 5 as single foot "micro" guides and to most these seem to be the only option for casting runners. What most do not realize is that the single foot casting runners are actually listed in the "spinning" guides. "Spin

Patrick - I do not use an arbor with that seat as I normally super glue a Fuji WCS check at the top of the barrel (normally a 1/2 size smaller than the seat ID size). I then put my epoxy 6" or so higher than where my seat will sit and rotate it down so that the barrel gets filled with epoxy. I stop short of the grip to remove any excess before I push over the tenon on the rear grip. Hope thi

David - Your issue was most definitely the CP. There is no need to use CP on black wraps (even with metallic inlays - also why those wraps might have looked a little grey). Raw black nylon will only get darker. What you saw on those G Loomis rods is why the best wraps are with raw nylon & straight epoxy application.

John - The key to using CP on guide wraps is all in the 1st coat. That 1st coat has to be a "flood" coat & make sure all the tunnels are filled before it dries. I will do my 2nd coat 10-15 minutes after the 1st to ensure all tunnels/gaps are completely filled. If the 1st coat dries with "pockets", you can do 2, 3, or 4 coats over & you will still have the "bleed&q

Please note that the sizing of Recoil guides is not the same as most other "standard" guides. The size of a standard guide is measured by the OD of the ring insert, as Recoils do not have an insert they use their own system. This is not exact, but for general reference a Recoil guide OD will be 1 size smaller than the model # dictates (the difference gets to 2 or 3 mm on guides 20 &

CPXtra is a moisture curing urethane product very similar to Permagloss. The history of CPXtra seems to be a mystery & a bit confusing (even to us when we acquired the rights to the product), but this is what I was told by a few people who were around & involved in the rod building community when it was introduced years ago. CPXtra was offered & marketed as a "color preserver&quo

Ryan - The picture displayed on vendor sites could be any one the sizes offered in the LG top which is from a size 4 ring to a size 8 (the 4's & 4.5's may be considered a micro top but it is not a different item - it is still an LG series top). So if the picture that vendor has is one of a size 6 ring for instance, then yes it may look taller than what you would expect on a 4.5 but what you w
