Quick take
A UV fly tying kit with three resin viscosities for building modern fly heads and bodies.
This Loon kit packs three UV-cure finishes, Thick, Thin and Flow, with brush and needle applicators and a UV light. Flow works as a head cement, Thick builds up shape, and Thin handles small heads, bodies and wing cases. Each coat hardens in about 15 seconds under the light or in direct sun, which suits fly tyers who want quick, tidy heads.
