Starbond KBL-500 Black Medium Thick, Premium Rubber Toughened CA - Cyanoacrylate Adhesive Super Glue Plus Extra Cap and Microtips (for Woodworking, Filling Knots & Voids, RC Car Tires) (2 Ounce)

In the absence of the spray, it's a largely pointless The process of filling even the smallest crack takes a long time. 1) The crackfill material is extremely slow to dry, and 2) the large majority of the material will soak into the wood during that incredibly long drying period. We'll need to spend days to accomplish what would take just a few minutes if there was a quick-fix The set epoxy takes about an hour and the regular epoxy takes a few hours. However, when used with the activator spray (which does not have to be the expensive Starbond spray), it transforms the whole space into something absolutely amazing. How about the Facebook commercial where it fills a crack in 30 seconds and sands it flat? In a literal sense, that is how it operates. After applying the oil, spraying it, chiseling away any big spots, and sanding the rest, you're finished. I find it to be very simple, incredibly fast, and looks great.

I wanted to put in an extra knot into this piece, so I found this product on the internet and decided to try it. I found that it was much easier to trim the excess off with a razor sharp chisel than sanding, thanks to how fast and easy it was to apply. My goal was to keep everything really flat and avoid over sanding the area, so I used the chisel. Sand paper will do the job if you have only that. Using the medium Thick was just what I was looking for and was just thin enough to soak into the fibers but thick enough not to make a mess! My self-proclaimed lazy tendencies make me seek out clever ways to work, rather than harder ways to work Probably the best customer service I have ever experienced, I contacted them over a shipping issue, they resolved it immediately, and I was able to purchase another item within a short period of time. The company is definitely the one I would order from.

Filler for wood voids, advertised as something that can be used to repair small holes Okay, I get it. It is immediately apparent when you pop off the cap that the smell is familiar. There's no magic. It's just superglue. Trying to fill in some tiny pinholes was difficult since epoxy clogged them up. I had to apply 15 applications to a few tiny ambrosia bug holes before it became abundantly clear that it was never going to work. After you apply it, it just dries to nothing and you have to apply it again. The process of drying took a long time, as well. The wet spot was still there even after hours of waiting. The cure time of epoxy is much faster. I'm sure that it can be done if you have the time and patience to squeeze out an entire bottle into a tiny hole. In the meantime, if you're like me and you want to get paid by the job rather than by the hour, you'll need to find another option.

About 200 ambrosia holes were filled in a beautiful maple board to make a tabletop. It took me just a few seconds to add some to the hole, hit it with activator, it shrank a bit, and hit immediately again. The software worked like a charm. The CA glue sanded the same as any other glue, did not impart a sheen, and coated perfectly with lacquer in my application. As difficult (messy) as this would have been with black sawdust and CA, I can't even imagine. What about epoxy as an alternative? I'm not going to do it The quality of something like what I described is superior. For my wood turning, I am certain that it will be equally good. They come with a variety of accessories. It's more than worth being charged for.

Glue up plastics, rubber, and likely anything else you need to assemble. The stuff you're talking about makes me happy. My spare frames of resin eyeglasses had been waiting patiently for me to glue them up. In addition to CP-glue, there were two others The glues on the 10 would crack because they were My plastic Audi taillight came off of a metal stud when I used this glue. It has a lot of toughness, which means that it has some give. The crack was filled with this, the stud was screed back in, and I sprayed the activator into the crack. One or two more drops have been added. It took less than 3 minutes to fix. This is not an exaggeration. It has been a while since I bought my black eyeglasses The crack has not recurred since we used this glue. I still have air in the air mattress that led me to order this glue. Thanks for making it available to me. My recommendation is to read Because CA glues are usually brittle, having rubber in them really helps make this glue last longer.

As it was fast on its way, I decided to test it on a piece of Birdseye Maple with some tiny inclusions. After applying the brown stain to the maple and following the video steps just like the video, I took the D/A sander over the spots and darn if I can see them any more! As an aside, I would not use this to fill large voids, epoxy is what I would use, but it's amazing how well it blended in with the sawdust, less mixed sawdust, and water-based glue it would take to mix epoxy. 10 seconds is the perfect length for me because I am not a patient person. Using it to glue the pieces together of a jig I made for a drill press was a great discovery since I didn't I have never seen anything like it before. It's a match made in heaven!.

I use it as a filler for small defects on my wood turnings but please pay attention to the fact that it takes longer to set up than other CA products I use, mostly BSI products. The rubbery texture of the product also does not break like other brands do. My tests never reached that state, but it may eventually do so. Because I am using it for cosmetic purposes and not structurally, it is suitable for me. Furthermore, it is much more expensive per ounce than other brands, but it is one of the only colored CA products that I have come across. Although I haven't needed to use the extra applicators or cap yet, it's nice to have them available.

While I lean towards the moderate side, I do prefer to use starbond adhesives. They are much better than other adhesives. As much as I use the activator spray, I have to say that this black glue crinkles a lot more than the clear when it is filled with the activator. It's still at work straight away, and if it's used as a filler, it's most likely going to be sent afterward anyhow. All starbond glues come with a detail tip which is my favorite part about them. The next time I buy, I will do so It was my pleasure to provide this information.
