Adam F Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 I need/want to coat/cover some lead weights in some kind of plastic or thin rubber coating? Loctite to a product called Colour Guard, but I cant find a weblink to anywhere in the UK that sells it. http://www.loctite.com/int_henkel/loctite_..._colorguard.pdf Does anyone have any ideas / suggestions as to alternatives?

Seamouse Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Hi Adam, Not aware of rubber coating but I find hammerite over a metal primer base stays on leads reasonably well for static work. Drifting'd be a different matter. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wedger Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Adam, What is the idea? If you just need to save your gel coat from overzealous lead wangers why not use the fingers of your old neoprene gloves.............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob F Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Rich uses a kind of powder paint which comes out a bit plastic-like. BF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

endeavour boats Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 have you not thought of LATEX. each dip will apply a slightly thicker layer. just keep dipping till you achieve the thicknes that you require. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
