Bug-Bond is a Multi-Purpose UV Cure Resin kit put together with the Bug Bond Professional UV torch to form a handy kit. Bug-Bond is great replacement for epoxy, which can be both messy and time consuming to cure. Bug Bond has been developed for use as a coating and is ideal for coating and doming applications of a vast range of fly patterns. The optically clear and tack free formulation also makes this product suitable for rod building and various other applications.
Bug-Bond (Original-Clear) is supplied with an applicator which allows you to apply small amounts and work this with a bodkin or a wooden tooth pick to get the desired effect on the item and then cure...this can take as little as 5 to 10 seconds. Large amounts of resin in saltwater baitfish patterns can take longer to cure BUT not as long or as inconvenient as using a drying wheel if using two part resins. A great feature of Bug-Bond is that it will not to yellow on exposure to sunlight... in fact strong sunlight will deepen the cure further. Testing has proved successful with large heads on pike flies, encapsulation of heads and dumbbell eyes on freshwater and saltwater patterns as well as full baitfish bodies, grayling bug backs, epoxy style buzzers and shrimp exoskeletons.
