What Did I Use?

[RunnyD]

A few years ago I stiffened up a mottled turkey feather to use as wing cases for stoneflies. Well I've used up the last of that feather and need to do another. Does anyone remember what I used to lacquer the feather? I don't think it was head cement as I assume it would make the feather brittle. Flexament perhaps?

 

What do you guys use?

I use Dave's flexament. Coat the underside of the feather.

Dave's Flexament works great but lately I have been using Shoo Goo.

I use Dave's flexament. Coat the underside of the feather.

Go to an art shop and get Fixitif. Comes in a spray can and is used for sealing charcoal/pencil drawings.

Pricey but a can will last years.

Thin skin plastic could be be an alternative
