- Instant repair
- Vertical surfaces
- Plastic
- Rubber
- Metal
The go-to instant repair glue for small jobs on plastic, rubber, and metal. The gel body makes it far more controllable than watery super glues, and the impact-toughened cure holds up to knocks that would shatter a brittle CA bond.
Pros
- Thick gel stays put on vertical and overhead surfaces without dripping or running
- Impact-toughened formula survives drops and vibration better than thin CA glues
- Anti-clog cap with a metal pin keeps the nozzle sealed for repeated use
Cons
- Will not bond untreated polyethylene or polypropylene (needs a plastics primer for those)
- Sets in seconds, so misaligned parts can't be repositioned once contact is made
- Small 15g bottle dries out if the cap isn't seated perfectly between uses
