UV2 Seal-X Enhancer Light & Dark

UV2 Seal-X Enhancer, available in light and dark, features long, coarse UV-dyed fibers that can be snipped to your preferred lengths and blended into any dubbing to create eye-catching hot spots.

With UV2 Dubbing Enhancer, you can mix your own UV2 dubbing to achieve the perfect blend without significantly altering your chosen color. The goal is to add a multi-colored reflecting spectrum that mimics real insects. Experimenting with these enhancers is not only rewarding but also fun, allowing you to craft impressive flies.

The double dye process used for these materials ensures they incorporate UVF and UVR wavelengths. UV fluorescence is found in various applications, from street signs to fly tying materials. In contrast, UV reflectance encompasses wavelengths that are invisible to the human eye but prevalent in the animal and insect world. This quality helps mayflies find mates and bees locate flowers, making them attractive to fish as well. As a result, UV materials and flies are gaining popularity in the fly-fishing community due to their effectiveness on the water.
