Man, that site offers a ton of tech talk and they certainly can steer people to the product for the best fit on an individual basis. Just a bit spendy but man, do they cover some bases that other places seem to take for granted.

There are methods that reduce waste to almost none.

I'm all ears.

Tom, I hear it's true... sad deal really all ears and one eye. He has a charming personality and a face that would make Hellen Keller laugh. But really good dude  :D

Years of painting automotive parts taught me one thing that leads to cracking of clearcoat.. Usually too thick of a coating or wrong grade of catalyst for the temperature. Having said that, I read the post and remembered the video below

I am still trying to figure out what polyester resin he is talking about.  All the resins I have used require a catalyst (MEK) and have a limited pot life after mixing. Yet watching the video he has a big vat and dips and closes the lid ready for the next round.
Wishing y'all tight lines and bent wriggling rods. Happy Fishing!

He is most likely using propionate which is a plastic melted in Acetone.
The acetone evaporates leaving you with a plastic coated lure. I have not personally used it but some guys swear by the stuff.
