I need to fix some stones on a headstall of mine and I see a lot are foil backed. Are these what you use or will the foil not glue on right? What kind of glue do you use to attach these to conchos as well? Gem tac?

The foil on conchos is why Rodeo Drive has their's plated so this doesn't happen. I've seen crystals peel off a concho with the foil back conchos that you are talking about. Good Luck.

Good Luck.
That's what happened to the one I have!
And that is why Rodeo Drive cost more plus the lifetime guarantee.
