[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Fergmiester I'm big on Cyanoacrolyte (CA) a.k.a. crazy glue, as it sets quickly, is strong and water proof. However it has down sides to it. If you let it get out of control then you've made a mess out of it. It can also cloud up surfaces if the fumes become trapped. It comes in different setting times and thicknesses.[/quote] A friend of mine once told me that dried CA loses its adhesive property over a few years (can't remember the exact number) and that pieces start falling off. I hope he's not right, since I've cemented quite a few structures together with it. BTW, once you open a new container, you should probably plan on using it up within a month, otherwise its performance degrades.
