I got a coil cover, but it was like trying to swing a boat oar through the water. I sprayed my DFX coils with bedliner stuff for trucks. Worked like a charm. I like the idea of the bed liner! did the stuff layout flat? Or maybe I should say smooth.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was fairly smooth after I sprayed it on, and it did wear off on the bottom after a year or so. I didn't win any prizes for prettiest detector on the block either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'd actually have a chance of finding something there with this machine! I just got back from Canova. It's sanded in bad. All that dune-fixing sand they dumped last month has been washed down to the water line by the big waves we're having. Targets are even scarcer than usual. I gave up after about an hour.

Hey Minelab I'll volunteer to test your machines in salt water! I live on a sailboat and I'm surrounded by salt water 24/7! Lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
