I have been experimenting with UV resins lately and I found BugBond was still a bit tacky.
I am now using Deer Creeks UV resin, absolutely perfect results.
Here is their web site, they are based in Wales.

They are also cheaper. :D

I think the Deer Creek resin is superb, The Davy MacPhail tying sessions are really good.

If your Bug Bond was tacky, maybe your batteries needed changing in your light? I like both Bug Bond, and Diamond Hard very much. The Diamond Hard is a little bit cheaper if I remember right.

Ray....I've been working with the clear cure goo as well......i have some tack free and I find it is not tack free, but it does come with an aplicator brush, which I like. The tackiness is a real pain when working with zonker strips for example. We'll have to compare notes in the Catskills
