when i used stretch magic i would tie it a few times n then put clear nail polish on the knot to kinda seal it !! (make sure its a quick dry polish tho or it doesn’t work)

I had the same issue too, but i kinda do this: use a surgical knot when tying off the clear cord. Tie it really tight but not too tight cuz it may snap. Then tie another surgical knot tightly on top of that one. See if that works cheer I think its called a surgical knot, but it's basically like a normal knot but you put the string under the loop a second time or a third time instead of once. I usually don't twist it under a third time with clear cord because it can separate. There's images on the internet about the surgical knot that will probably show you how to do it better than i could explain it lol but it's a lot stronger and tighter than a normal overhand knot
