Question 1

Reglueing a glass bulb to metal stand for outside led light. is it watertight and can i separate them in the future to replace battery?

Accepted Answer

It should be watertight yes, depending on the application.  As far as separation later on is concerned, it may be possible but only if the entire thing can be submerged in acetone. The acetone will dissolve the glue, but could also damage other parts of the stand and or light.Hot glue might be better for this application as it should also be water tight and can be removed quite easily with 91% ISO which should not damage any of the other materials in the light/LED/stand.

Question 2

Sole heels on my sketcher dress shoes separated from the shoe (both man made). Tried shoe goo but separated again 1st wearing, will this work ?

Accepted Answer

My shoe repair guy uses CA glue to re-attach heels, so this should work. CA tends to work well where the forces are compressive and not shear. Any of the GOOP products or E6000 should also work. They are synthetic rubber based glues so they have some flex to them and they provide really strong bonds. I have used GOOP to reattach pieces of a rubber sole that were starting to peel away on some running shoes. It worked great.

Question 3

Looking to glue adhesive backed velcro to a tape measure that has a rubber type protective cover.  Will this adhesive work?

Accepted Answer

Best ask the manufacturer or try hard as nails 3000

Question 4

Is this good for metal 28mm miniatures?  Does it hold better if the model is dropped then the BTS standard CA products?

Accepted Answer

I used it on a hard plastic ice crusher cap - and the vibration caused it to come apart. Not good for vibration. However - it does make a good bond. I prefer the E6000 Hard as Nails Medium Viscosity - however - be sure to wipe off the extra with a cloth - possibly dipped in alcohol before it dries. Super-glue type adhesives don't work well with vibration - which is what this IC-2000 is.
