    You can also coat the head with clear vinyl after placing the eyes on. You have to be careful with the glue not to get it all over the place and every time I put Sally's over a FL Yellow head it changes the color to so ething less than I wanted. Not as bad, but I also don't like it over Chartreuse paint.

    Kinda like super glue it bonds all kinds of stuff - I use a piece of tin foil and put a good drop on it and use a tooth pick to put it on the jig head if any eyes fall off. It held the tiny domed wiggle eyes really well. I'll post pics of it tonight

    I have been using Loctite brush on super glue because it keeps from drying up as fast as the tube kind.

    If you want them to stay any length of time providing you don't loose them in a pile of brush . Use Klass Kote epoxy , CSI , Dick Knite , something like that . I gave up on all types of glues . Stick,em and dip,em .
