OK hear is my opinion on top coats
D2 30 minute epoxy ..... awesome durability but it comes off in chunks when it does come off. Sucks to apply with a rotisserie. If negatively effects the action of smaller baits. The shine is awesome looks the best
Concrete sealer ...... sucks!!!! 100% of the baits were wrinkled in some form. Some so small no one would notice, some were a total loss with no rhyme or reason. Super thin.... easy to apply ...stinks a little. Good hard finish
CS coating winner winner chicken dinner ! Smells good, no wrinkle ever... super thin, maybe not as thin as concrete sealer but zero effects on action even after 3 dips.... just dip and let drip. I'm sold on the CS I just wish I knew what company made it ::).

Have you tried Solarez?

I have not I've read good things about it

I never had any wrinkles with concert sealer. But I'm going to try cs sealer. Guess I'll call capt. Kurk.

I really wish there was a durable clear similar to this in a Matte finish. All this glossy stuff is to look pretty to the buyer, and less realistic in my opinion. Kopper's Live Target does a great job with it. I have used a scotch brite fine after epoxy and it does a good job, But who wants to do all of that extra work?
Fish, craws, etc don't look glossy under water.... :'(

21 I agree. I seem to do better with dull baits then glossy ones.
I think solarez is duller then most top coats. But I don't want to buy a lamp and top coat and then find out I don't like it.
