Yes, it can be used as eye drops and as replacement of anusol for severe cases of rapture bum among other uses :p

Ps: ignore this is a post with the happy hour side effects and super glue does not help..........then again it can be a good lip stick replacement :D

Another issue to consider is that some glues are gap filling and some just don't work unless there is good contact between the surfaces to be glued.

I am a builder and the glues I regularly use are Soudal Fix All, a Polystyrene based wood glue called Prep Multi Adhesive and for really difficult jobs I use a product called Xtack 7. Xtack 7 is expensive at around $30.00 a tube and you need a very good gun to use it as it is quite stiff but it works really well.

So, I imagine your probably right about that particular hole too.

I often use super glue when I cut myself.

A little hi-jack, but don't want t start a whole thread on it.

What glue should I use to glue two rubber conveyor belts together? I want the rubber on the outside so will be bonding the two fabric sides together. I was thinking of stealing some Ados of a fridgy and using that, thoughts?

Without seeing the job or product this is hard to answer.

I would suspect contact adhesive might be suitable.

Rema Tip Top SC2000 is the most commonly used glue for cold bonding conveyor belting - but you probably won't find it at the local hardware store. ;)

If you have a local Blackwoods store or similar, they should carry it. Otherwise a conveyor belt splicing contractor (any Metso places locally). If you were a bit closer, I could give you some.

Awesome, yeah we have blackwoods here, I'll hit them up for some of that. Cheers for the info.
