Cigar label pens?

[JRay8]

What do you use to affix the labels to the wood before finishing?
thanks

When I first started I used CA, but it bled through the bands. Since then I've heard it's a good idea to seal the bands first then you can use CA. I've only tried this 2 or 3 times and each time was a train wreck so I guess you can learn from my mistakes. I've had some luck casting cigar bands in clear PR using the same method.

just use a a small drop of ca at the ends of the label. Or you can us waterslide decals

I use Hodge Podge to put it on the pen then put thin layer on the outside of band.
I let that dry for at least 3 hours. from there I start laying on the CA First is thin as a sealer up to 12 of Medium. After the 6th or 7th, I will let it stand for 30 minutes. then I sand laterally until the high spots are gone. clean it off with naptha then I continue on.

I first spray the band with testers decal bonder and let dry the use a small drop of ca glue to hold the band in place. hope this helps

i just CA it to keep it secured. yes, some bands the CA soaks into, but the foil pressed ones never give me trouble.
