704036	2008-09-10 02:32:00	Selleys. I once got a dab of it stuck on my desk, and then without realising leant my arm down on top it to use the mouse. 2 mins later, I had to rip my sweatshirt to pull my arm off the desk! It's good stuff.	wratterus (105)
704037	2008-09-10 02:39:00	They're all cyanoacrylate.	roddy_boy (4115)
704038	2008-09-10 02:42:00	Hmmm . . . . what do you want to stick? Not all cyanoacrylates are created equal!! :)	nofam (9009)
704039	2008-09-10 03:06:00	And Selleys (unless mixed on a Tuesday) is less equal than most.	R2x1 (4628)
704040	2008-09-10 03:12:00	General purpose really although am I right in saying some are better on plastics . I guess these days it is usually plastics that break so might as well go for one that works best on plastic but other things as well . I think I read somewhere that some of them have small gap filling properties . All very confusing .	B.M. (505)
704041	2008-09-10 03:37:00	Plastics are often very difficult to bond; many of them have a low surface energy, a la the dashboard of your car, or PTFE (Teflon). I'd recommend you use the Permabond range of adhesives from Homershams (cognoscenti never call them glues!! :p ) - check out their cyanoacrylates here (www.homershams.co.nz) Sounds like you need the high-viscosity (gel) variety.	nofam (9009)

704043	2008-09-10 04:43:00	PTFE = Polytetrafluroethane [/smartass] Smartass?? Just too lazy to write Polytetrafluroethelyne to be honest! :p	nofam (9009)
