Gen4 provides the discriminating craftsman with the most robust set of performance properties in the industry. Featuring the most chemically advanced air release protocol (XAR) on the market, and now with our new UV2 ultraviolet inhibitor, Gen 4 has become the "clear choice" for high performance guide wrap coatings.

Files & Documents
I typically apply 3 thin coats of finish to my thread wraps to fill in the thread over the guide feet instead of trying to do it with 2 thicker coats. A low build/low viscosity finish works better for me on thread wraps than a standard or high build finish.
The Generation 4 low build has good working time, and levels well. A few quick passes under the finish with an alcohol burner eliminates any bubbles.
This is a good product, and I prefer it over the others I have used; the container needs to have a transparent section so you have can see the level in the bottle and also need to include self-sealing syringe caps.
This is the first time that I have used this product and I like it better than the other finish I had been using. It seemed to look better and was easier to use. This was recommended to me by the customer service guy that I spoke with.
Very pleased with results from this
I was ticked off that threadmaster was disappeared. I learned that gen 4 was developed by the same person who gave us threadmaster. So I gave it a try. It's slightly thinner and runnier. On the upside it has longer open time and better bubble popping. Also is clearer. I will use it from now on and adjust my technique for applying it. You saved an unhappy customer.
