Overview
Built for anglers using Forward Facing Sonar, this brush-on coating is designed to make lure presentation easier to read on screen by increasing brightness and clarity. It can be used to add stripes, patterns, or full-color coverage with the built-in brush, giving soft plastics a permanent finish while allowing a removable coating on hard baits, blades, and jig heads. The fast-drying, unscented formula cures in 3 to 5 minutes, which makes it practical for quick adjustments on the water or at the bench. Packaged in a 1/2 oz. bottle and available in high-contrast color options, it offers a focused way to customize baits without adding unnecessary complexity.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Permanent on soft plastics, but removable on hard baits, blades, and jig heads, so the finish is not equally fixed across all lure types.
- The 1/2 oz. bottle is a small-format option, which may be better suited to targeted customization than large-volume use.
- It is designed to enhance Forward Facing Sonar visibility, so its value is tied to FFS use rather than general-purpose lure painting.
- The fast-drying formula cures in 3 to 5 minutes, leaving less working time for detailed application before it sets.
