I have done 2 full builds and reworked 2 rods. On all of them the finish over the decal always turns out a little wavy. It doesnt look terrible and I am proud of my work but wondering what I might be doing wrong. I am applying my epoxy with a cheap flat paintbrush maybe 3/8" wide. Pretty much lightly touch the blank with the bead on the brush as it spins, then move down and repeat. The first 3 I did I used the Roddancer 2 part finish that came with my start up kit, using the Pro Kote from Mudhole now.
