Cheers lads

if its only a very small repair the spray is ok, but if its well worn you may need to use universal clear car laquire, i think Henry of Henrys Tackle may have some give him a bell, i only spoke to him this morning about it and he was going to look for it, im sure he would post. 01-8555216

Paddy oul stock your a gent.
I've heard that you need only use the smallest amount on the spigs and that any more can wreck the rod.
I'l give henry's a buzz for both products tomoro. going calling into peter horne in blarney tomoro and might see what he has to say about it.
thanks again paddy
