[QUOTE="Mattman, post: 14694, member: 23"] The blank doesn't NEED any finish or anything in that split grip area. Sanding with 220 grit up to about 600 grit will get the blank nice and smooth. A coat of car wax will give it a little shine and repel water and fish slime. That's all that you would have to do. If you want to get fancy...sand the graphite...finish with a clear urethane...mask off and spray paint color and then urethane...add some decorative thread wraps...rod finish over the thread...
