What should a guy use after he paints on wood to put a clear coat finish over the already painted bait? Trying to find a good sealer for a wooden lure.

Thanks!!

Here's a few choices:

Envirotex Lite 2-part epoxy

Definitely use some sort of epoxy over wood as John mentioned. Wood expands and contracts quite a bit and you need something more flexible than an acrylic-based clear that will eventually crack and/or lift.
