    Default Threadmaster Finish

    I bought some Threadmaster finish. Has anyone ever used it?

    I've used the Threadmaster Lite, Which is supposed to be pretty much identical to plain Threadmaster, except for the viscosity and cure time. TM light is great I love it, Here are some shots of my First and Second rods I've done, used TM Lite... I'm not a pro at this and they aren't perfect but after reading about all the possible issues that can come up with finish I'm happy with these.

    Nice rod RDL.
    I've used TM regular for a couple years now. Wouldn't really go back to anything else. I do have some Diamondite, but for now I'll finish off the TM. I think you'll like it. Clear as gin and it levels like no other I've tried.

    I've used Threadmaster (regular) on my last 2 rods and really love it!

    I now have some Threadmaster Lite and plan on using this on my next couple of rods.

    I've used Flex Coat, Flex Coat Lite, and U40 Duragloss LS Supreme on quite a few rods. They were OK, but I really like Threadmaster much better. As was already mentioned, levels extremely well, super clear, etc. I've also had no bubble problems. It's supposed to be really well-designed as far as UV protection (non-yellowing) after relatively long-term tests, too.

    Anyway, I like Threadmaster a lot, and will continue to use it!
