Default Flyline Dressing?

I keep all my messages sent. I can't find were I ever posted this question.
If you can send me a copy I'll stand corrected. Even so maybe there would
be someone new who would appreciate your expert opinions on flyline
dressing?? That is why I posted the question to begin with and I did get a
reply or two from several thoughtful enough to respond kindly. Thanks

What line dressing do you use?? I have used Scientific Anglers for

several
years with success. Thanks MIKE



Most of us probably use the same thing we used back in April of last year
when you posted this almost exact same question.....

It looks to me like you asked two questions: "What is a good Fly-Line
Cleaner and lubricant" and "Any home remedies".

Out of curiosity, what do you view as the difference between fly line
dressing and fly line cleaner and lubricant?

Well....I would think (I may be wrong) that "Flyline Dressing" is a floatant
and that Flyline Cleaner and lubricant is just that. A material that cleans
and also lubricates the line thru the ferrals making casting easier,not
necessarily aiding in floatation.... Please clarify this for me and others
that might be are interested. Thanks MIKE

I think you said you use the SA "dressing", which claims that it
"contains the same advanced lubricants used in the coating of our
lines for a slick, long-lasting coating" and "includes one Scientific
Anglers cleaning pad". Do you have examples of dressing that don't
clean or lubricate, or cleaners and lubricants that don't leave the
line "dressed"?
