Troutline Hot Colored UV Resin Tack-Free 10ml

Troutline Hot Colored UV Resin is a fast-curing, high quality UV resin in vivid colors that cures into nice and glossy coating without any residual tack. Comes in bright, vivid colors with opaque appearance, making it a perfect resin for making hot spots. It cures within seconds when exposed to UV light. When cured, it becomes a hard, super-glossy coating. Its thicker consistency and slower penetration, make this a great resin for coating of bodies, backs and heads of different kind of nymphs, streamers or saltwater flies.

It comes in a UV protected bottle with a small brush applicator. Also included is a dropper attachment.

10ml bottle (0.34 oz)

How to Use

• As the resin is UV-light sensitive, it should be applied only indoors, or shaded from the sun.
• This resin has pigments of high quality, including a white pigment that was used to provide an opaque look. White pigments are quite dense and can sediment. For this reason we advice to shake the bottle prior to use.
• When your fly is ready to be coated, put a drop of resin, spread it over the desired area and use the UV light to cure it.
• A single layer of this resin will be enough to provide a deep glossy look. Should you wish to get a thicker coating (e.g. thicker body), you can apply additional layers, curing each one with UV light.
• You can use this resin to add hot spots, coat the heads, backs of nymphs, or the entire fly bodies.
• For the best curing, use quality fresh batteries and keep the light on the area where the resin is applied long enough until resin is completely dry without any tack.

Storage

• Do not keep the bottle in direct sunlight.
• Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use.
• Keep the bottle in dry area, separate from your other fly tying materials.
• If the resin is not used for a long time, it might solidify and become thick and waxy. Simply put the bottle in hot water for a few minutes to get the consistency back to its original state.
• This resin is best if used within 2 years time.
