When your re painting a manufactured bait say for example a jake, hellhound or a believer how many coats of epoxy do you finish with over the paint. I use water based paint (createx) and didn't want water getting at it nor ruin the action of a bait with to much epoxy layers

Epoxy kills some of the action, I would use auto clear, just started using it. Works Very Well

Really depends on the bait you are doing. Lots of options, I usually do a couple coats of enviro on them. I don't see it killing any action. Some baits I put less on, some more. If you want a cork to remain a cork, do one light coat, but know that your paint job will only be protected by what you put on top of it.

You can thin devcon 2 ton epoxy with denatured alcohol and get a very thin coat. I've done that on a few crank baits and it seems to work ok. The sides of cranks and gliders get rashed very quickly regardless of what you do.

Muskyfix is fun to watch clear coat, he picks up his spray gun and says "say hello to my little friend!"
