A water-based, thick polyurethane head cement for building hard, glossy heads and bodies on your favorite fly patterns. This one part formula is non-toxic, odor-free and replaces messy epoxies or solvent-based lacquers in many applications. 1 oz. bottle with applicator brush.
Pearlescent colors have sparkle in the cement for a soft reflective finish. The Phosphorescent cement glows in the dark.

I dilute Hard Head with one third thinner and use it for the all heavy duty jobs - streamer heads, clousers, etc. It works great, but the new jars have a brush with a stem that is too long and it jams the brush fibers into the bottom of the jar.
Got a bottle free from a promotion. I'm glad I never bought this because for my needs any cheap nail polish does the trick. Lots of people say SHHAN is better because it's cheaper, but they don't realize you get half the amount for about half the price, unless I'm going crazy and don't see the cheaper bottles of Sally's. I can see this being great for painting poppers or just clear coating them, but as far as head cement I can't justify the price.
This is a very good product. Not only being able is it a water-based product where you don't get those chemical fumes dissipating everywhere, it gives a very nice finish on the heads of your flies. All you have to do is either use the brush applicator that comes with the product or use a needle to apply it onto the fly head for a great finish.
