Crazy Wicked Glue I recently purchased this glue/filler for a 1:1 Grille repair where it worked great! My Girlfriend broke an el cheapo resin watch band this week and as she was going to chuck it I figured I’d see how this product lived up its claim……. Amazing! The process is interesting…. you place a powder on the part, put a drop of the glue on the powder and place the parts together hold for about 10 seconds and viola a super bond! I then chamfered the crack and filled the void with the powder and activated it with the glue, the filling properties were fantastic and super strong. Is it going to fill all my needs for glue ups….? NO! However, it’s one great tool in the tool box. I purchased this product at my local NAPA store.    "RASS" |

That's interesting . . . is it a cyanoacrylate ? And I'm wondering what the powder is that they're using .
Any more info on the label ?

T.O. Yes it is cyanoacrylate as you can see! I am more impressed with this product than when I posted the information.... The band is a friction clasp and you have to flex it to get it to latch... I have cycled this this thing at least 50 times and no signs of failure (which I actually thought would be the case) Based on my experience I doubt any big box store epoxy would stand the test.... I even doubt that my industrial Devcon would do the trick. Time will tell how well it holds up... at this point I am sold! Jimmy "RASS"   |

Thanks for the extra info ! I do like the idea of using carbon powder and aluminum powder as a filler .
Think I'll check here and see if I can find some or search on line for some .

WOW! Possibly a replacement for the venerable JB Weld? I will sure have to investigate this interesting product further. Thanks RASS.
