Resins & Cements

UV resins, head cements, and curing tools for durable, polished fly finishes.

High-quality UV resins and cements designed to strengthen flies, build smooth heads and bodies, and create durable, professional-looking finishes. Fast-curing, tack-free formulas for nymphs, dries, Perdigons, and streamers.

Resins & Cements

Resins and cements are essential for creating durable, clean, and long-lasting flies. Whether you're sealing thread heads, building Perdigon bodies, reinforcing wing cases, or adding color accents, the right resin or cement helps your flies withstand abuse, maintain their shape, and fish more effectively.

Our collection includes tack-free UV resins in multiple viscosities, colored resins for hot spots or accents, super-thin Perdigon formulas, and clear head cements for classic finishing. Combined with a reliable UV curing pen, these materials give tiers full control over strength, shine, depth, and finish.

Choosing the Right Resin or Cement

Thick UV Resin
Great for building shape and structure. Use it for:

  • Perdigons
  • Streamer heads
  • Smooth, domed wing cases
  • Larger nymph bodies
  • Coating materials for durability
  • Cures fast and forms a strong, glossy shell.

Thin UV Resin
Ideal for shallow coatings and subtle reinforcement. Perfect for:

  • Slim nymph bodies
  • Emergers
  • Wet fly thoraxes
  • Adding shine without bulk
  • Flows well and levels quickly.

Super-Thin Perdigon Resin
Designed specifically for Perdigons and razor-thin bodies. Use it when you want:

  • Ultra-slick sink rates
  • Zero added bulk
  • Crystal-clear transparency
  • Penetrates fibers and cures perfectly smooth.

Colored UV Resin
Hot orange, pink, black, and other shades help you create:

  • Hot spots
  • Trigger points
  • Contrast accents
  • Durable color without paint or thread buildup
  • Excellent for modern competition-style nymphs.

Clear Head Cement
The traditional finishing material for:

  • Dry fly heads
  • Nymph thread heads
  • Small patterns where resin is too bulky
  • Classic patterns requiring a subtle sheen
  • Penetrates thread wraps and dries hard.

UV Curing Pen
An essential tool for UV resins, curing them in seconds. A must-have for resins used at the bench or on the go.

Buying Tips

  • Choose thick resin for building bodies and a strong coating.
  • Use thin resin for subtle shine or small nymphs.
  • Pick super-thin resin for Perdigons and sink-focused designs.
  • Add colored resin when you want durable hotspots or contrast.
  • Use head cement for classic dry flies and minimal-profile finishing.
  • Always cure UV resin with a good-quality UV light for tack-free results.

High-quality resins and cements make your flies cleaner, tougher, and more polished—whether you're tying tiny emergers or high-pressure Euro nymphs.
