Well folks I am not going to get into the whole debate of who's it is and what to call it but I thought it was a cool technique and thought to give it a try! Here is what I found: I started with Size C NCP red, white and blue, I wrapped it onto the blank (IP842 7') and then burnished it. I then coated it with epoxy (regular.. I did not have any 5 min) and then started to wrap the 30lb Big Game Mono. Wiped off the excess and the first pic is the result.
I did not like this effect and I knew it was not right. Well I cut it off and tried again thinking I may not have burnished it well enough? Tried wrapping the same direction also. No change! I tried 2 more times to get it right, changing direction, burnishing style etc. Still no help!
Well I figured I would try a different size thread (A) maybe the C thread and 30lb mono didn't work well together.. what did I have to loose?
I changed to Size A NCP White and Blue and a Size A Metallic Red, I then made a test run by wrapping the mono without epoxy and I got the intended effect!! Backed off the mono coated with a light coat of epoxy re wrapped the mono and finally got the proper effect as seen in the second pic!
I figured I would share this with yall just in case someone else runs into the same problem.
Allen Thanks for the discription of your trial. I believe it will help the rest of us to be able to make this wrap successfully. That's what it is all about, helping each other. Thanks partner. Pat
