SPF ## 35

Recommended Posts

Guest

From our illustrious British representative, Roy Christie:

 

"Try this one.. I don't think I've seen it anywhere.

 

For fadeproof wetflies like Yellow Partridge, and softhackle Partridge & Oranges, etc., where the body silk shows through by design, try waxing the Pearsall's silk with Chapstick Lip Balm SPF factor #35, available at your local drugstore.

 

I haven't had time to test them yet, may take a few years, but the theory should be good."

Very interesting. Sometimes I wonder how people figure this stuff out. I couldn't imagine saying to myself "Hey rub some of your chapstick on that fly and see what happens" blink.gif

 

Very cool, Dave you need to find out if it works headbang.gif
