This is the finish stage for ALX Rods, and it’s one of the most important steps in building a high-quality bass fishing rod. We start by applying a two-part epoxy at 125 RPM over every guide wrap and the label. Once that’s done, the rod goes onto the big wheel and turns for a minimum of five hours. That slow, steady rotation lets the epoxy cure evenly and level correctly instead of sagging or building up where it shouldn’t. After it cures, we do it again. Every ALX rod goes through this process
