There are many brands of epoxy or polymer rod finishes. They all have one thing in common; they claim to be the best. Which is the best?
Which has the best ease of handling, paintability, flow rate/cure rate, affirmative cure, bubble dispersment, sheen, leveling?

I have to agree, been using Flex Coat for a few years and haven't had any complaints.

I have used Flecoat but I now like TM. I just like it better. only need to spin it for 4hrs. I don't have problems with micro bubbles which some say they do with TM. And I find it crystal clear, doesn't crack or yellow.. I'm going to try LS supreame on my next build.
