This stuff could be useful to us

Where is it available? Lowes, Home Depot???

I'll post this Rudy, shows some helpful reviews,  but I'm sure you could get it cheaper elsewhere:

Not cheap, but if it does what it claims to do, it's a good price.

It is very good stuff Sal. Very popular with the fly tying guys. Been using a variation of it here for quite a while now. As you said it ain't cheap though! More possibilities than I realized.
Thanks for sharing,  ..  Lou

There are quite a few similar products in the market e.g.

Various UV nail varnishes and glues

I've been using UV set nail varnish on rod whippings for some time - infinitely quicker than epoxy

I will give it a shot,  I'm looking for something that is not flexible, so I could repair some plastic parts that I have.
On one of the videos, he's places a drop on the palm of his hand and it stays pretty tight, could we use a drop on a clam when surf-fishing?

I'm sure it's a UV-activated polymer much like those used today in dentistry for restorations. Be careful with your eyes... We use special orange-tinted glasses to filter out the harmful UV rays. Premature cataracts with prolonged, low-level exposure, blindness with high-level exposure. Not to be messed with without proper eyeware...

Sal, gluing baits to hooks is quite popular with some of the carp fishing boys in the UK. Baits like floating fish pellets or dog biscuits for surface feeding fish. I've used it with snails, cockles, clams  and half mussels - makes for a good tough hook bait Instaflex (Bob Smith Industries) ca glue is another I keep in my arsenal - great for repairing soft plastic lures/worms etc. Also strengthens knots without becoming brittle. I've just started using it on spliced hollow braid joints - early days yet but very promising

Sal: If I wasn't spending so much money on my new project I would try it, but looks like your going to be the testing analyzer.

Thanks for the info Chris, never too old to learn.
I use bait thread, but doesn't do a great job on clam.

Not right now Joe, i need to recuperate a bit, been spending too much on these upgrades, besides, some of these guys have already tried it

[theswimmer]

Plus one on the fly tying uses.
Various formulas and light combinations have been available for 8-10 years now.
