Head cement

Question please:
For basic tying of nymphs and dries (for trout), has anyone used Hard As
Nails clear nail polish by Sally Hansen as a head cement and how has it
performed as a head cement?
Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Hard As Nails works very well. But it also has a lot of formaldehyde which
makes it impossible for me to use as I have a skin sensitivity to the
stuff. Like some of the others I seldom use head cement. In the last year
I've taken to using little daps of Zap a Gap on questionable areas of my
flies (parachute posts, calftail wings).

And here I thought bygamy was against the law.

I like the black nail polish for eyes on salt water flys and the glitter for
adding sparkle to sal****er flies.
