For Rod Builders, by Rod Builders

Experienced rod builders know what they want in a rod finish: extended working time, easy leveling, good bubble release, thread saturation, ultimate clarity and protection from UV yellowing. PROKOTE answers these needs while providing the industry's first medium build epoxy.

Each kit includes mixing & application instructions and a set of free 3cc color-coded syringes & color coded yorker caps.

Note: the volume listed is the total volume of both hardener and resin. For example: when ordering PK-2, that features (2) 1oz. bottles to make approximately 2oz. of prepared finish.

The Difference is Clear.

PROKOTE rod finish has been tested to be the #1 epoxy. PROKOTE has the finest UV inhibitors available in a commercial rod finish. The clarity is unsurpassed by any other finish - period. It remains flexible without staying soft or becoming too hard and cracking. The leveling properties in this finish are 2nd to none while micro bubbles release with ease. In 1,500 hours of weatherometer (WOM) Xenon Arc testing by an independent laboratory, PROKOTE Rod Finish proved to be the #1 brand of thread finish epoxy for rod builders. Tests for quality and overall coating performance were performed.

Controlled laboratory testing proved dramatic superiority over the other brands. Tests on PROKOTE note an 87% clarity retention compared to the leading manufacturer, while UV Yellowing was the lowest of all brands tested. Laboratory Tests note that PROKOTE Rod Building Finish is 207% better at non-yellowing and 187% better at a 60 degree gloss reflectiveness than the leading brand of rod building finish.

Please note: Epoxy finish typically has a 1 year shelf life depending on conditions.

I was all setup to use Pro Kote when I uncapped the bottle a discovered It was rock hard. Less than two months after receiving. The hardener was dried solid when I removed the shrink wrap and ready to mix with the resin. I HAD NOT OPENED THE BOTTLE UNTIL I WAS READY TO FINISH THE FLY ROD GUIDES!

Goes on well most of the time. Sometimes is a little tacky if it gets an air bubble in the syringe and doesn’t mix well. Would recommend it

I have been using this for my fishing poles ever since I started building them. This stuff works perfectly.

I have used this on a couple rods so far. Seems to give me longer working time than flex coat high build. It does take longer to set up, but who cares how long the dryer motor has to run.

Absolutely the best guide wrap epoxy on the market. I have used this for years. So easy to work with.

This epoxy is a little hard to use as it is self leveling and requires rotation to keep it from sagging. But the end result is crystal clear and very strong.
