I haven't got mine yet but am talking to the US distributors about stocking it here...

Update on the surf stuff - it's called Solarez and the epoxy version is $29 for a 2 fluid ounce (about 100g ?)at R&R sport also http://www.smartfrogs.com/solarez_safe_resin.html

Good info. I flagged using Tuffleye because it just isn't viable commercially and I'm tying a lot of epoxy flies these days. The Aussie guys using it for their personal use are raving about it though.

I don't think it is exactly the same stuff as the Tuffleye apparently is using a type of blue light, not UV... UV, apparently won't set Tuffleye. But that's neither here nor there... if the end result is the same.

I recall Bob Popovic saying there were issues with other similar products but mainly things like a greasy finish on the other stuff but I don't know that this is a big issue... would a Kingie care?

I think this is a great tip and I'm certainly going to try it. If nothing else the tip on cheap UV lights is a good one. Last one I saw they wanted about $30 for.
