Glass Help Please
Got a superb deal this week...in good order a Higgins 9' boo and an 8'3" Heddon Pal 8306 Mark-1 glass rod- both for $20. I'm gonna switch and try some glass work. The Pal has red paint(?) and is well wrapped with 11 guides, 1 strip and tip. Looks like a previous owner added about 5 more guides because those areas were scraped to blank (tan color)and guides wrapped. I'm asking your help on:
1. How to remove all the red paint/coating?
2. What paint (and method: spray/brush) for the new coat.
3. Is epoxy or poly-u used to coat guide wraps on glass rods?
4. #8306 = 8'3" 6#?
Thanks for your help.
