Gorilla Glue 115ml

Awesome stuff but takes a while to get used to. If you want to stick something back together quickly then this IS NOT what you will need. If you need to hold things together and are not in a hurry to do it then this stuff is amazing. It takes time to learn how to use it though. I've used it in a few different kinds of circumstances with good and bad outcomes. It has amazing sticking power but it expands like mad, much more than I realised but it is economical as not much is needed. Used to glue a shaft of wood into a base and it is super strong BUT took ages to set and expanded out of the fitting. Cut neatly and painted over okay the job ended up perfect. Daughters battery powered car needed the tread re attaching to the wheel. I had to hold the rubber tread tightly in place for ages till this stuff set enough to beat the substances desire to shrink back. BUT now it's set it has a fantastic grip. It expanded out from under the rubber strip, that's my fault BUT the grip is amazing. This car is driven over our rough ridged concrete track rain or shine and it is holding perfectly. In hindsight I should have screwed the rubber tread tightly in place till this went off. Not for fixing china or stretchy things. It will do those but it would be messy and you'd need to hold the stretchy stuff stretched tight till this stuff went off. I wet the areas being glued and apply this stuff carefully and sparingly, sometimes I need to wet after applying the glue. Need to make sure the objects are held in place somehow so you don't have to hold things like a lemon waiting for it to go off. The key issues to learn It takes time to go off so secure objects where you want them to be once glued in a manner that frees your hands. It expands a lot so can be a bit messy and unless you've done the above step it will actually seperate objects. It will set a beige/ light brown colour but can be cut, sanded and painted afterwards. It can be carefully wiped away as it slowly expands out of holes and joints. Awesome stuff and have used it to stick wood, plastic, metals, material, rubber and it has done the job BUT it takes time and will expand a lot. There's loads of it.

It’s very sticky !

Amazing strong glue I've uses extensively on all sorts of stuff but disappointingly this bottle had crystallised on top so not good n difficult to use probably due to being old stock but normally brilliant product

Gorilla Glue 60ml Gorilla Glue is a really effective compound. As an ex-craft teacher I am used to using a variety of glues for different jobs around the home as well as the school workshop. I have used it to glue the tips on my compound bow (and that hits a target at over 320 feet per second), its filled and stabalised the loosest of schoolboy woodwork projects, stuck the trim on my wifes car and just this week, Gorilla Glue is very soundly keeping the new washbasin and pedalstal stand fixed together and firmly anchored to the newly tiled floor (I hate drilling holes in nice new surfaces). I am still exploring situations / projects where it can be used. It is a very interesting adhesive with remarkable filling qualities. Never buy more than you can reseal in the bottle / tube, always squeeze as much of the air out before sealing the cap back in place and it will last a long time to the next job. I first came across Gorilla Glue in my local superstore but it did not last too long on the shelf, thank heaven for Amazon, there are plenty of suppliers here. Regards, The Crafty Craft Teacher.

Brilliant glue.

I have used this many times and it holds well and seems practically indestructible. However you have to do a bit of planning before you use it as it is not a contact adhesive and takes about an hour to fully set so it is quite difficult to hold the pieces you are joining in place if you are repairing an awkward shaped break. Follow the directions on the pack carefully as it needs moisture to set and you really need to get the moisture right. I use a garden spray bottle set to the finest mist I can get and give one quick spray and if gluing wood leave for about 1/2 hour before gluing. Do NOT use too much as it really does expand by about 3 times the volume and although excess can be cleaned off with a damp cloth it is better not to need to do it. When finished make sure you clean the top of the bottle with a DRY cloth otherwise you will not get the top off again. This size comes with a single disposable, very disposable, glove. I do not have large hands but managed to split the glove when trying to put it on, that said it is very sensible to use gloves as it is difficult to get it off your hands.

It is early to review this product in depth. I have used this to repair my Timberland classic boat shoes that comes with light brown colour of sole of some synthetic material which is not rubber. I have used a regular rubber/plastic sole available on Amazon to repair. This was quite successful . I have not done any long distance walking yet to confirm how long it is going to last. Bottom line: after two weeks of limited outdoor use this remains intact and I presume this is a good quality glue better than Super Glue which did not last longer than a couple of days. After removing any excess dried up glue this can be sand papered and coloured. I used G - clamps to fix the joint for two hours. Works well. I would recommend this for shoe repairs. This is kind of expensive but it does the job. Thanks.

The smaller bottle is better. It says in the instructions that the air must be squeezed out of the bottle each time, as the glue sets and reacts with air. The only problem with that is the bottle shape and strength doesn't make it easy to do this compared to the smaller flat bottle you can get. Much better cap than the smaller design though. The other issue is that if you don't use this glue that often then it will dry up inside long before you finish it, so in some ways a smaller bottle would have done me. Indeed the smaller bottle dried up (even though I always squeezed the air out), so thinking about it this will dry up with even more left in the bottle. Not the manufacturers fault per se, but don't waste your time on a large bottle maybe?
