Gday all
Just wondering does anyone use Megapoxy for glueing in bibs, tow points etc. I was in one of the local hardware places today in Darwin and he said that it has the exact same properties as Araldite and dries super clear as well. Could even maybe used as a sealer? $50 for 1.5 litres.
Cheers
Hutcho

Thought this might be of interest to everyone. Having not actually sealed a lure yet it just confuses me even more.

bote cote seems to be the best one tested and meranti was the most absorbent,i know a couple of luremakers who swear by the two-pac sealers used by boat builders so theres definately some to this.interesting stuff,i wonder if the sealer was applied during falling barometric pressure if there'd be more penetration?,food for thoughtThumbs Up
that's no how ye make porridge!
