Very good instructions and good value.

The only thing that is odd about it is- 1 syringe has more bubbles in it. Took some effort to get the same ratio of stuff out That's my review!

Pros
  • 10 Minute Set; Plenty of repositioning time for the perfect fit
Cons
  • Possibility of causing damage to surfaces during application or removal

Cure time is a lot longer than advertised

Ok so it is actually really tough stuff, and as long as you have the space and proper tools ( clamps and such) it will work splendidly. But. If you happen to try to just hold the pieces of your project together yourself. You will be there all night.

Pros
  • The clear formula is perfect for use on glass, plastic, and other transparent materials
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use on certain plastics

I purchased this to re-attach the rear view mirror on my '93 Nissan. The mirror just gave up the ghost and fell off one day. I've been happy with Gorilla products in the past, so gave this stuff a shot. The syringe is easy to use. Try not to catch a whiff though. The mixed epoxy smells like. What DOES it smell like? Nothing else on this planet, anyway. Maybe. imagine a robot's poo.? Not a pleasant scent, but tolerable.First attempt was a fail, because I could not hold the mirror up to the glass

Pros
  • Adhesives, Sealants & Lubricants
Cons
  • Not ideal for use on items that will be exposed to high amounts of wear and tear

Gorilla Glue is great for large and small projects

This product works well for dissimilar materials. I use it to glue styrene plastic and brass together. Once it is dry it bonds forever. It is easy to dispense, even for my arthritic hands. That is facilitated by cutting the tips of the tubes a bit wider than usual. The caps seal tightly. But, remember to pull the plungers back a bit or the glue will continue to flow until the internal pressure drops. It is a bit messy so I recommend gloves if one is going to be using it in a large project. I…

Pros
  • Best for tough repairs requiring a durable bond, gap-filling and solvent resistance
Cons
  • Easy to accidentally waste product

Something is wrong !

I've been using this Gorilla Epoxy for years and its always been fine.I have an older tube labeled Clear just like the new tubes I bought that has worked fine.But, just used one of the new tubes I have and it's not hardening at all.Please Note:With the Older tube, one side of the Epoxy tube is Clear and the other side has a light tinted color like Honey and that one works fine.With the newer tube, Both side are Clear !Just a wild guess judging from the conflicting reviews,. it seems the New…

Pros
  • Can be used for a wide range of applications, including automotive, household, and craft projects
Cons
  • Not ideal for use in outdoor or humid environments

This is the ultimate glue. PERMANENT hold once it's cured.

This stuff works better than any other adhesive I've ever tried. You just mix equal parts of the two sides of the syringe together in some kind of a disposable container and apply it with any disposable stick or spreader. The plastic package it comes in and the included tongue depressor work nicely for this for the first time or two. After that, you'll need to use a dixie cup and a pencil, or any disposable container and stick will do. Even when you need to glue something that actually bears…

Pros
  • The syringe design allows for precise application of the epoxy to prevent waste and mess
Cons
  • Unsuitable for use with food-contact items

Great for bottle caps!

This works great for making bottle cap necklace charms!My best advice when using it for those is to very slowly add 1-2 drops of each tube simultaneously onto the bottle cap image already glued down (be sure you air dry the glued down image for 24 hours BEFORE adding the epoxy top coat. if not the image will RUN under the top coat after a week or two. trust me!) & quickly use a tiny disposable paint brush to mix it right over the image (not too aggressively but for about 20 seconds) & then…

Pros
  • Strong, permanent, fast and gap-filling; Great for multiple surface applications
Cons
  • May require more than one application to achieve desired strength

So far, so good. for my opinion

I purchased this to repair a metal ring that had separated from a stained glass lamp shade. Originally, it was soldered on but the solder failed over many years. It would have to be soldered from the top and not only would the solder show, I don’t think it would have held any better. Then I would have to try to match the color of the solder lines.I have used epoxy in the past but never epoxy that dried clear. I coated the side of the ring as well as the area the ring fits into. I let it dry…

Pros
  • Epoxy Adhesives
Cons
  • May not be able to withstand UV rays or sunlight exposure

Having a reusable self-mixing dispenser nozzle, or a couple non-reusable nozzles for each tube would be a lot easier.Having all epoxies, including this product, listed against other branded and chemically described adhesives in terms of strength (in PSI, MPa or N/mm2), flexibility in all axes, curing, bond types, and other statistics would be very useful, since right now all we have is Project Farm and DIY YouTube videos to determine whether a product is vastly overpriced or is economical…

Pros
  • The compact size makes it easy to store and transport for on-the-go repairs
Cons
  • Possibility of yellowing over time

Problem Solved - my new review

My 2 year old likes to get fruit from the fridge. He ended up nreaking the plastic drawer. Replacement drawer was $110. This glue fixed fixed the cracks!

Pros
  • This is the best glue out there, it works great on almost anything
Cons
  • Can be messy and difficult to control

Multi-purpose solution

I've used this glue for so many applications that I probably can't name them all. Good to have on hand just in case. I like it better than "the other leading national brand" in two-part epoxy for specific reasons:1. It dries clear (transparent) rather than ugly yellow or beige2. just the right amount of working time (about 5 minutes) -- doesn't harden too quickly, but is firm in 30 minutes3. works with a variety of surfacesThis is a great glue for assembling 3D-printed parts (on a large-scale…

Pros
  • Provides a cost-effective alternative to replacing expensive items, saving you money in the long run
Cons
  • Not recommended for use on items that need to be flexible or movable

Great purchase! - my new review

Bottle of shampoo fell down and hit the side of my tub and use this as a temporary fix until we can get a new tub installed , Can be difficult to sand or shape once it is cured.

Pros
  • Holds up in extreme temperatures and weather conditions, making it ideal for outdoor repairs
Cons
  • Can be difficult to sand or shape once it is cured
