UV Resin Yet No Mortgage Required

The stuff I bought in January is still perfect. It's in a brown glass bottle and never sees the sun

I bought the Bug Off resin and UV torch together earlier this year for about £12 and it works beautifully. You do seem to get through the non-rechargable batteries, but my use is pretty limited so it doesn't worry me too much. Resin dries under UV light in a few seconds, sets rock hard and shiny. I use it mainly to protect floss tags but I did quite a few fast-sinking buzzers that turned out very well. I'd recommend it.

"Interesting"  experience this morning with this stuff.

I was tying up some nymphs to use in the afternoon.The sun was shining through the window of my fly tying room illuminating the vice beautifully, yes I do have a dedicated fly tying room with a permanent set up  :.

There is nothing like natural light for fly tying.

The resin set as I was applying it!  :lol:

Keep it out of sunlight!

I have it although i think i got it for around £8, including the torch. I like it. Its great for quill bodies and pierces the water well for emergers.
