You got that right Wolfdog. Fast,easy and long lasting.
I won’t discourage someone from using something that works for them, but I’m not going to advocate using white primer, at least not on bodygrips. I wouldn’t use it on footholds either, so I guess that covers that too. If they’re going to follow up with paint, ok. If they truly want a white trap, that’s OK too, but when experienced trappers say that rusty metal primer dips work well for them and the only picture posted is of white trap, well, I think beginning trappers seeing that may be getting pointed in the wrong direction.
Quite a few people, myself included, have gone to only dipping in a coat of thinned primer, and I sure don’t want it to be white. Whether or not it matters to animals is another issue altogether, but if someone is using white traps, it is my opinion that they are, at a bare minimum, asking for problems due to theft and non-Trappers noticing them more easily.
I see the paint in the picture, but the trap pictured isn’t painted, it’s just primed.
I didn’t mean to ramble on, I just wanted to be clear that clean metal primer isn’t what most people are talking about when they say they’re dipping their traps.
