In most cases quartz cement …

Fly Tying: Which Head Cement Should I Use?

Fortunately, most brand of head cement sold through various fly tying supply dealers will do the job, but cheaper brands do tend to dry out faster (they thicken) and have a shorter shelf life. Most head cements are lacquer based. If they do get really thick from lack of use, add a little bit of lacquer thinner to them and shake it up well.
