Buy a little bottle of silicone water-proofer made for shoes.
Cavalier' is one brand name, available at Walmart. When you finish
tying a batch of dry flies, dip them in it, or paint them with it
using a small brush, and let them dry overnight.

I've used the silicon spray shoe water proofer on some of my flies.
Seems to work fairly well. I'll have to try it on all of them. And
I've got some silica gel that I bought at the flower shop / nursery /
hobby shop (used to dry flowers for arrangements) that I can use to be
sure they're dry first or after some use.
