gorilla glue gel

Post by strum »

I have had great luck with blue tip GG till latly im having some vanes come off..
I think I found it was because of using alcohol instead of acetone..anyway I called the 1800 no on the package and the nice lady is sending me a new bottle plus some (she said) new gel it will be green top..i think the gel will be the jizzle ill be testing :o

IF you got your alcohol from a drug store, it may be rubbing alcohol. That will have some "oil" in it. The % on the bottle will tell that. 70 % is oily 90% plus is fairly "clean". :D

I went to Quick Bond Adhesive after my Gorilla Glue failed due to being out dated. Mine was replaced also and I am sure all glue goes bad at some point.

krazy type glues have a shelf life. 6-12 months once opened. they also hate humidity and moisture. because of the water in it with rubbing alcohol just let the shafts dry overnight before glueing.
