Tool

Thanks Stormcrow. I personally have never done a cord handle but will keep your advice in mind when I do one some day.

steelwool works very well when used as is for the first run,second run mix up some green buff soap water and dishwashing liquid and third run with burnishing compound follow up with the same formulas but on a piece of 4000 micromesh.

Stupid question here gents but will rod varnish not be a bit of a better option than the epoxy?
