This has great all around use and every tier should have some n his bench. Good stuff for cementing heads and setting hackle. I use a needle to apply it to minimize mess and waste. It's basically super glue.
I use CA+ (that's with the "plus sign") for all of my "super glue" needs. I've tried others, even other "flavours" of Zap-a-Gap, and have settled on CA+. It sets quickly, glues everything that I've thrown at it (even my fat fingers from time to time) and seems to hold up with being in the water. And it doesn't stop at the tying bench, either. I like to toss a drop on some of my fly line connections, especially for my "big fish" tackle. Note: that's ONE drop. A "trick" with most "CA" adhesives is to avoid using too much. Putting 2 drops, where 1 is required just prolongs the setting time, and way too much seems to prevent the glue from "taking up" at all.
I use this guy and the others in the line in my warmwater fly tying. As someone mentioned, it will leave a white residue upon drying but it can be sanded down without a problem. I also paint right over it when I use it in my poppers without a problem.
