The current thread about swing tip rods and changing the tip ring got me wondering.
What is used nowadays to finish rod whippings off to get that smooth glazed effect for the DIY angler who replaces a rod ring.
I have made rods in the past and there was something that came in a tube. It was a thick cellulose type clear adhesive that you spread on the whipping and it sort of congealed into a smooth finish.
I cant see anything like that for sale recently and my whippings on replaced damaged rings are functional but sure aint smooth.
Anyone know please?
