Loctite glue question
« on: October 26, 2017, 05:16:47 pm »
I absolutely love the performance of Loctite gel super glue. I need however more than 10 seconds of set time. So, i see tjey also make a glue called GO2 GLUE. Its not a CA glue but rather a polyurethane and polyoxysilane glue. I have no idea. But it jas a 30 min set time and 24 hour cure time. I am reimforcing tje belly of a thin recurve, its non bending, so, it shouldnt need a working load. Im curious about anybody's thoughts on it?

I've used it.  I wouldn't trust it for anything other than gluing a handle wrap on. 
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

I am with clint, i used it and wouldn't trust it. You can get extended pot ca glue, but i would just use tb3, it will give enough time to get the work done and you know it works
failure is an option, everyone fails, it's how you handle it that matters.
