Threadless guide wraps

I'm going to build my first sensi-touch custom rods follow the article by Bill Stevens. Now I have the Perma Gloss to start the work but I haven't the Swifty Rod Finish epoxy suggest into the article to fix the guide on the blank before use the PG for topcoat.
Does anyone can suggest me what kind of epoxy or glue I can use instead of Swifty above to have a good job?

Thanks in advance

Marco I would suggest that you use a tiny tiny tiny spec of Rod Bond Five Minute Epoxy Paste or the Threadmaster Ultimate Gel for the initial attachment. Just use enough inside the tunnel and then fine tune the alignment before cutting the bands. If this is not available a small amount of gelled Super Glue will to the trick.
