I usually do 50 to 100 jigs, or 25 crank baits at a time. Just need to keep eye in place while the clearcoat cures. D2T less than an hour, etex and some of the other slow cure products I use take 24 hours
I use d2t, but the problem is heeping the eyes in place with D2T when in a hurry or ETEX when I am more concerned about appearance. Etex requires turning and I have a jig turner so no problem there some eyes pop loose on the turner unless they were preglued. Ive tried lots of so called self adhesive eyes and most work but every once in a while one or more will pop. Not a big issue with jigs, but crank baits it can be a killer. Trust me when I say forget about removing cured epoxy to salvage an often times expensive crank bait body.
Locally we had a lure maker producing a lure called A.C. Shiner several sizes are no longer available and I think the lure is pretty much defunct. The lure does however have a very loyal following and when properly restored sell for ~30.00. I find them at yard sales and garage sales all the time most are pretty beat up. They are easy to restore, refoil, air brush white belly and black back new yellow and black eyes then clear coat. The originals were clear coated with a resin that I cannot duplicate and I have tried all kinds of clearcoats. Either the action changes or coating is too heavy or too light or not very durable. For me, the etex has been the best. But eyes gotta stay where they were put.
