Thx guys, I did have a bottle of thread lock. Maybe that's where I read it.

Does anyone else remember this cp as being labeled "do not shake" to mix? My current bottle does not have this warning. I hope it's not just me! Lol.

I would not coat the blank with epoxy.
Forum: rodboard

I would go with Flex-Coat.

I can feel some wool being pulled over my eyes here. LOL
Forum: rodboard

You might want to keep it covered. I usually tack wraps lightly with masking tape before finishing.
Forum: rodboard

I would move it out a half inch or so.
Forum: rodboard

A 1/2 in. or so wrap over the damage would hide it and might even provide a little hoop strength. Or you could look at the scratch every time you pick it up. Lol

Way to step up Casey!

It is a moisture curing urethane.
Forum: rodboard

From the CPXtra instruction sheet: "humidity will be a factor regarding cure time. The times we have recommended between applications can vary depending on your geographical location. For those living in drier climates you may have to increase the recommended waiting time between coats." So indeed moisture curing, and it will go off in the bottle over time like Permagloss, only more s

Another vote for CPXtra.

I agree with John, Wrap over it.
Forum: rodboard

Thx guys, found it.
Forum: rodboard

I would put the guides on temporarily where I want them, static test and proceed from there. I integrate with the ferrule wrap whenever possible. You might have a lot of flexibility in location compared to a chart.

Michael. can you provide a link to these "hard specs"? I can't find them.
Forum: rodboard

I hope we're done here.
Forum: rodboard

THX Patrick.
Forum: rodboard

Put a drop or two of glue in there as John said.
Forum: rodboard

Patrick, I find this thread to be very interesting. Please continue it after you've fished the rods. I'd like to hear your thoughts.
Forum: rodboard

Herb,! There's a flyrod ? for ya. Be careful what you wish for. Lol
Forum: rodboard

Watch all the Flex-Coat videos. Great starting point.
Forum: rodboard

100% correct!
Forum: rodboard

Feelin' good, can't be real. Must be dreamin' bout my drivin' wheel...
Forum: rodboard

X2 Dave. Most sensitive would would be a reel taped to the blank with the fewest, lightest guides. If you're touching the blank you have reached the pinnacle. No matter who says what. Of course this only applies to lines under tension, would hardly apply otherwise. LOL once again.

Sometimes we have to be citizens of the world!
Forum: rodboard

Michael, I don't believe anyone ever said we shouldn't mention non-sponsors on here, only that we should remember them when purchasing products. We all try to do this whenever possible. Sometimes that may not be possible. Some weird stuff ends up on custom rods at times! Lol.
Forum: rodboard

Bill is correct, The cane grows in the Tonkin Gulf area of China. The whole point of my asking is that even should Phillip be able to source all made in USA components for this rod the blank still will have originated in China.

Peter is correct.
