CA (Super) glue that dries fast n strong

[slowtwitch73]

What is the hot ticket for CA type glue? I feel like everything I buy nowadays takes effing forever to set. In the good 'ole days it dried fast n strong.

Maybe I need to enter the world of accelerants..

I've been using the 2 part with the activator spray. haven't had any not work, tend to buy from mobilesolutions. I find if I buy bigger quantities it ends up going bad before I use it.

I learned about this CA glue and activator in the GJ. Comes in several viscosities.

Get the kind that is light activated.

This is good stuff. A lot of model builder use this brand and they make it in different viscosities from thick to thin to gel. They make a accelerator for it and it will set up almost immediately when you hit it with the accelerator. https://www.zapglue.com/ca. I use the thin all the time to fix cracked firearm stocks at work. It seeps through the wood grain and makes a very strong repair.

I'll be using this 2P-10 tomorrow. I have it in a few different viscosities, this is the jel which is the thickest one they offer. The activator does help it fire off fast. I like the product.

We use Zap in the medium viscosity and thin viscosity at work. I prefer zip kicker to zap accelerator.
Water thin cyanoacrylate will set fast. I like to place the parts together and then allow the cyanoacrylate to wick in.

Back when I was turning pens, I used a metric S ton of CA glue of all types for a 20 layer finish that I'd perfected. The best and most consistent CA products I found were from Satellite City. You can buy them from Amazon or directly from their website. The aerosol activator is great, and I liked that you could be new caps by the dozen. Makes dealing with plugged up bottles much easier.

Loctite Ultra waterproof gel held my crown in for a week long cruise until I could get to the dentist. They had to grind it off.

I've been using Pacer products for literally decades. I've been using the same bottle of Zip Kicker I got from my local hobby shop for over 20 years. That being said, after looking at the Satellite City stuff, I may be making an impulse purchase in the near future...

CA glue-

Breath on it the moisture in your breath will speed it up not as fast as activator but it works.
