I talked to Gary when it first came out, and he felt it would be too soft of a finish for cues. That was a couple years ago, and so I didn't try it...but I am thinking of ordering a small amount to try

solarez is hard as a rock...... it never delaminates, cracks, or peels...................

Ah, but is that the lacquer type finish or their normal epoxy product?

The lacquer is softer, according to the owner/chemist at Solarez. What Kim is posting about is their Polyester finish which is hard, and sands/buffs to a high shine.

no......... I never use phenolic except for shaft inserts

Phenolic is Solarez's kryptonite......even with their sealer for it.

Wow I figured anything would stick to phenolic. Does it peel?

I have never had a problem with adhesion because I always use an epoxy base coat and epoxy sticks to everything\
