I use both Devcon 2ton and E-Tex and although both are good I keep thinking there might be something better. D2t is brittle and tends to chip off when it contact a hard surface(rock) during the cast. E-tex usually requires at least two coats to get a build up that I like. On some of my larger baits I use d2t as a first coat then a coat of E-tex, this combination seems to work fairly well. Have been thinking of trying Dick Nites top coat over the epoxy as a finish coat, just have not got around to it yet.
