+1 for HAN- For very small heads, use a toothpick or an old bodkin (or other pin) to apply.

UV adhesives are expensive. For most fly heads Sally Hansen Hard As Nails
nail polish will do the trick. Thin out the fibers of the brush in the
bottle so you can avoid slopping too much polish around. It's easier to
apply with a smaller brush. Plus you can thin it with acetone (which is
what nail polish thinner is).

I picked up some of this stuff a couple of years ago. It's a little smelly,
but picky bonefish and carp don't seem to mind. It's a fraction of what the
fly shops charge and the stuff seems to be about the same. A little tacky
when it dries, so hit it with some hand sanitizer and a q-tip.
