Review on 5-Minute Syringe: Boost Your Consumer Development Power! by Bob Fasho

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The strongest glue? Fewer questions! More applications!

Fewer words, more action! This stuff really does what it says on the tin! It's a solder glue like no other, and oh my god it WORKS! I'm so glad it worked for my Alienware M11x-R2 (2010) laptop repair. These Dell-made laptops got a bit muddled when the design of the laptop hinges wasn't quite right. These laptops, when brand new, can only open and close the lid before the hinges detach from the base. For example, I've been opening my laptop lid as slowly as possible for almost a year until the left hinge finally breaks. Unfortunately, my warranty had expired and I didn't have the time or money to send it in for repairs. On the other hand, the lucky part of the bad luck I was able to find was that the hinge could actually be attached if the base was epoxy glued to the hinge and the plastic screws supported. After ordering this epoxy solely for the purpose of restoring my prized Alienware, I stumbled upon gold! This stuff saved me hundreds of $$$! The instructions were easy enough to follow. Simply squeeze the required amount of material from the syringe onto a piece of cardboard and mix the material for 10 seconds until it forms a nice smooth texture. Apply quickly to the treatment area and don't waste a second! This stuff almost cures in maybe 3 minutes or even less! The only thing I noticed was the smell. This epoxy has a very subtle smell that tickles your nose because it's more smelly than pleasant haha. But anyway, I'm paying for the insane folder, not the colon! So the smell should not under any circumstances reduce the rating. All in all, this item was probably the best glue-based material I've ever used! When I received the item I encountered a problem which is that the name Revain is in brackets (PACK OF 6) and I only received 1 out of 6! I ordered from Revain Warehouse Deals because they had a good sale at 2/3 the price of epoxy new when you are buying a used item when the item's packaging is slightly damaged. I've contacted Revain at the moment and am awaiting a response but I'm hoping they send me another 5 pack of epoxy they missed the first time. I didn't pay that high a price for a single epoxy package, so Revain should fix that bug. I hope Revain resolves this issue quickly as it may be related to the UPC code on these products. I'll update this review once Revain fixes the issue, but otherwise this product still deserves a 5/5 for 'excellent'. UPDATE: Finally, Revain quickly realized the mistake they made with the Epoxy 6 Pack name and fixed that mistake ahead of many. Buyers fall into this trap. They also returned my purchase and allowed me to keep the only epoxy package I received through their mistake. In general, you're really paying around $30 for a pack of epoxy. Crazy expensive, but hey, this stuff works like no other. Thanks again Revain for fixing the issue and solving my problem.
