Review on 2-Pack Gorilla Max Strength Clear Construction Adhesive: 2.5 Oz Squeeze Tubes For Strong, Crystal-Clear Bonds by Darin Schaffer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Sets quickly & works as expected

I needed this adhesive to put up a small framed screen to limit access to the underside of my house. The crawlspace screen had been breached and there was no way I was going under the house to fix it, so this was my solution. I'd tried several adhesives and they all failed. Gluing to painted cinderblock, I used a dime-sized dollop on each corner. The recommendation is to use a squiggly line, but I really didn't want a lot of it on the screen frame for the time when I would eventually want to remove it.I didn't put the included tip on it, instead, I just uncapped and put it on each corner. I then held it firmly in place for 60 seconds. I did need to reposition it and with a little bit of a struggle got it done and held it again for another 60 seconds.The adhesion on the 4-corners of the screen frame worked as I had hoped. The screen is in place and now critters will have to go elsewhere. I'm happy with this product for its strong adhesive properties and wouldn't hesitate to use it for similar projects.

Pros
  • Great adhesive
Cons
  • Applying the adhesive can be quite messy and difficult to control, resulting in unwanted smudges and spills

I dislike that when you use the removeable tip, you then remove it, let it dry, and remove a lot more wasted glue than you used to begin with. Other than that, glue works as expected.
