Quick take
A thin, UV-cure black resin for finishing fly heads and bodies without wiping residue.
A black UV-cure resin for fly tying that needs no mixing and leaves a hard, glossy finish without a tacky layer to wipe off. It is thin and low in viscosity, so it flows into thread wraps and bodies, and it sets in seconds under a UV light. The half-ounce bottle includes an applicator brush, and it suits tiers who want dark heads and bodies on streamers and nymphs.
