    Thanks again for a great video! Can you share the rod blank and grip you are using? Thanks!

      The blank is an NFC MB 736-1 X-ray LMX northforkcomposites.com/product/mb-736-1x-ray-lmx/
      The grips were custom made in the custom cork videos. ua-cam.com/video/yQULYP6TAfA/v-deo.html

    does the cork sealer that they sell, do anything to protect the cork? If the cork has the cork sealer on it can you put epoxy over that?

    • @fdxcustomrods

      The sealers do protect the cork from drying out as fast but I have never put epoxy over a sealed grip. Great idea for a future video.

    What type of brushes do you use and prefer. Looking to find a better brush in bulk and not a ton of money

      I haven't found a great disposable brush but these are the best so far. At $11 per 100 they are the cheapest. amzn.to/3kQS4UT

    Epoxy resin or Epoxy adhesive? Sorry, I'm that's a dumb question. I'm wanting to do my handles. Just don't want to make a mistake.
    What's a good name brand?

      You have to fill. They will not ship with fuel.

    Have you ever put 100% tung oil and then epoxy? I would think it would make it pop even more.

    • @fdxcustomrods
      @fdxcustomrods  Рік тому

      I have not. I would be concerned about how the epoxy would cure over the oil.

    Great information.
    FYI: Your background music level is too loud, both when you are talking and when not.

    • @fdxcustomrods
      @fdxcustomrods  Рік тому +1

      Yep. I have hearing issues from a life in construction. I'm working on a system to get the audio levels correct in the edit.

      Captain Lee, your other videos have been very good on background music volume but this one, in order to hear what when you are talking, the volume was too high. Great job other than that.

      The choice of music was a little intense.
