I saw a video in passing on someone who was fragging a hammer. When he pulled out the hammer, the plug was still attached, and he showed the rock work where is almost looked like a rubber insert was in the rock making removal and replacement of the plug easy. Of course, I wasn’t paying too much attention at the time, and now I can’t find the video. Is there something out there like that?
 
It might have been stick epoxy. I found that if you wrap a bit around a frag plug stem and insert it into the rock, then wiggle, twist, remove and reinsert the plug, it bonds to the rock but not so much to the plug.
