OJYDOIIIY Fishing Rod Repair Kit with Epoxy Glue, Wrapping Thread, Clipper, and Masking Tape

I had to replace an eye on one of my rods. This kit contained everything I needed, except directions and the eyes, which I purchased seperatley. You have to cut off your original eye, remove the residue with included sandpaper, then use the tape to hold the eye temporarily. Start wrapping the tape from the eye back toward the rod, I also used the tape to hold my tag end out of the way while I wrapped. Finish by tying it off. I used the 2 part epoxy mixed very well in the provided cup (a little goes a long way) applied with the brush in the kit and let it sit overnight. I did apply a second coat the next day after trimming off all the tag ends. Worked great. Note that this has a clear epoxy, my original is black, so color doesn't match my other eyes.

Very nice little set-up. We'll worth it.

No instructions and the epoxy takes a bit of time to initially set up. If you are repairing a rod it’s kind of a pain trying to turn it so the epoxy stays even. Haven’t used the rod yet so can’t speak to effectiveness

Broke one of the guides on my 5wt fly rod. Purchased new guides and used this kit to repair the rod. Worked great and have enough material left for any future repairs.

This is a nice little guide repair kit. The scissors are particularly cool, you can snip real close and they are sharp as can be. the brushes are really nice too. they are the perfect size to apply the epoxy. I wish they gave more than 4, but now I know what to get. Not taking away any stars for that, just say'in. The thread is good quality. You'll get enough to do about one medium sized rod.

Good

Nice kit has everything you need to attach your missing fish pole eyes. Some instructions included but not to clear on how to use the kit. Seems like a lot of work. While I did use the thread., I found it much easier to use another epoxy from the hardware store to attach the eyes and simply wrap the thread around the rod for a permanent hold.

Overall, I’m satisfied but the kit has some drawbacks. First, the provided rod wrap is thin wire, not nylon thread, and it’s almost impossible to keep the wraps uniform in tension and aligned straight without overlapping. If you release it during the wrapping process, it opens like a spring, necessitating starting over. Also, it is exceptionally hard to get the epoxy and hardening agent out of their bottles, so mixing the two in equal amounts is very hard. There are actually no instructions, so I simply assumed they were to be mixed in equal amounts. It seems to have worked.

Handy little kit to have for minor rod repairs I have not used the epoxy resin yet as other reviews stated that it takes a while to cure so I used another proprietary brand because was in a bit of a hurry to make my rod repair but good value none the less

Epoxy cures well and is very clear. Happy will the results on my rod builds.

Excelente compra, todo perfecto. Sin dudar hasta próximas compras. Llegó en el tiempo que se estableció al momento de comprar, gracias.

I tried this for the first time yesterday. I’ve been building and repairing fishing rods for over 40 years and I’m pleased with how well it worked. I used syringes to measure equal parts and let it sit for about 12 minutes before using it. You definitely need a rod dryer because it takes about 5 hours to set up. I actually did 2 fishing rods and had 4 pieces turning on my dryer. All 4 came out fine. I definitely recommend this and it’s only 1/2 the price of Flex Coat.

Nice kit
