Epoxy over Spar Urethane

I just refinished a fiberglass rod blank with 3 coats of Helmsman Spar Urethane. Can I coat the thread wraps with Prokote Epoxy, or do I need to use Spar Urethane?

You can use epoxy on the wraps. No problem.

How is tha spar looking and had any issues with it? Just finishied stripping 4 rods and ready for a coat of finish. My first time was going to use UB40, a 2k clear coat, and possibly the Hellmann spar. Just curious. I’m out of town and was going to get the supplies as soon as I get back. Two I’m painting, other two I’m finishing raw/natural.
