i use the deer creek stuff and i think it's great. it sets rock hard and clear so no need to give it a coat of varnish afterwards.
their service was good also,they sent me the nozzle applicator and when i said i wanted the brush applicator they sent me it for free.

i much prefer the brush applicator, it's great for buzzers.
the nozzle is good for large pike flies.

You will need a separate dubbing needle, gor trout I prefer a brush & often don't need a needle but for larger flies a dispenser is a bit quicker. Diamondhard is available in both types, although the brush will work happily with both.

I have just plucked up the courage to try bug bond...

And I must admit I like the stuff...

Very quick to use and has a good finish...

I got the new torch and I use good quality battery's with it...


I have no had any problems with it yet...
