Title: Thin super glue?
Post by: Prarie Bowyer on November 02, 2014, 11:52:51 pm
Which of the glues on the market are thin?  It seem like I wind up with a lot of the thick stuff lately.  Which is thin?

I like tight bonds "instabond" really thin and amazingly strong. Had an old boyer tell me he never used anything better than "zap a gap" Patrick

Loctite 420 is very thin and will penetrate cracks extremely well......a bit expensive though, but worth every penny when you really need it.

go to a hobby shop that sells model airplane supplies.  they will have one-ounce bottles marked thin, medium, and thick.  Medium is good for most aplications--like fletching, but I always have a bottle of thin and one of medium.  If you store it in the freezer, it lasts longer.

I just search that well known auction site for low viscosity superglue. I've had some V good stuff at good price too.
Some is so low viscosity it jumps out of the bottle :o

I buy whatever is handy at Wal-Mart or our local ACE Hardware. Unless it says "GEL" it is always thin.

Hobby shop is 45 min drive for a big bottle.  I'm in the country so I don't get a lot of selection.  Have an ace thiesens and walmart.


Hate to match its price in shipping.

 Think I can get the lock tight.
