CA glue question - Angus - 09-09-2015
Sorry folks, I know it's been asked before but I lost a lot of my bookmarks. What's the preferred source for CA glue?
Re: CA glue question - Steve K - 09-09-2015
I use starbond. The biggest reason is our club orders it a couple times a year and we order enough it ships free. Still, even with shipping it's a good product and reasonably priced. They also have a big selection in viscosity and color choices.

Yep Steve has it right and it only cost $30 for a 16oz bottle and they send you 4 smaller bottles to fill and the thin drip nozzles too.

You have to call to order since they do not sell it on their site.
Good to hear from you again my friend.

Thanks guys, I hadn't considered it before but that black CA is going to make my life a whole lot easier

I don't use much CA, A bottle will last me years. I keep it in the refrigerator.
will try the Starbond when my bottle runs out

I think including Black they have pink and 2 other colors. I also wanted to get black so it will show in-between the cracks or I should say the seams.
I think it would really highlight the wood like that.

be prepared Arlin, the black is double the cost of clear. A 16 oz bottle of black is $60.00

I door see this product on that website?
I searched "ez bond" and it only found CA products.

Yah
I forgot about that but it is still cheaper then by the 2 or 3 oz bottles from others.
I would use Medium CA clue and add black India ink to change it instead.

The company you mentioned there thin CA viscosity is only at 50 cps but Starbond is 2 or 3 cps which is soooo much better at penetrating especially if you use inlayed metals or other things.

Plus it comes with 4 small plastic bottles with lids and the small flexible tips that allow very good delivery
