AlumiUV turning wheel set up

Postby CheCT » Fri Dec 04, 2015 7:47 am

What kind of light set up would you guys recommend for using AlumiUV with a turning wheel?
I'm typically turning 20 - 40 baits at a time.
Thinking 2 fluorescent light banks with the wheel between them but not sure if I'll get enough uv exposure or not.
Input greatly appreciated
Thanks

The distance away from the bulbs will vary the tack free time of the AlumiUV. The closer proximity to the bulbs, the faster it will cure. I would recommend doing a test with two coupled 48" bulbs to see how fast it cures. If it is too slow, perhaps making a smaller diameter wheel would help as well as adding a reflective top and bottom.
