J-B Weld ClearWeld 5 Minute Epoxy, Clear, Syringe, 2 Pack, 50112-2

Good value

It works, what more can you say?

Difficult to use and re-use cap once glue material builds up…and it will. Plunger apparatus works well to disperse glue for mixing. Effective adhesion but let sit overnight.

Works with about 5 minutes of pliable time before starting to gel. Takes a full day to really setup hard. I clamp or appy pressure with weights for good adhesion. The dual dispenser eork pretty good but you need to make sure no air pockets or you wont get the proper proportion of mixture. I like it... holds well.

Great price and easy to use.

I used it to fix a broken leg on a laptop lap desk I have. It was broken at the leg hinge. It holds up really well, I can even fold the leg now. I didnt expect it to work that well. Ill add a picture soon.

The smell very bad

Its not a bad product tried this hoping that I wouldnt need gorilla glue because its messy. But still ended up using gorilla glue to get the job done. I bout it to fix my passenger mirror!

Some things about this epoxy glue make it distinct from other quick set epoxies Ive used... But it does work pretty well especially for some use cases. First, the cap. It has a GREAT cap if you can remember which orientation to put it back on as, because if you get it backwards, then youll glue the cap to the syringe! So, twist the cap open, then BEFORE pulling it off, with a sharpie mark a line on the cap that continues on to the syringe. Then youll never have to guess the cap orientation - just line up your lines. Second, the set texture. My end result is firm but a little rubbery. This seems like potentially a good thing for ceramic especially. Third, the set time. Maybe I have an odd batch? But I was expecting it to set in 5 minutes, and it didnt. This was a problem because I didnt have a clue how long to hold my piece. Needs 10 to 15 minutes. It just starts getting tacky at 10 to 12 minutes for me after thorough mixing. What I learned is... using a piece of cardboard and a toothpick... * Squirt some out on the cardboard. * Mix it for 3 minutes. You have to really mix it very well. * Apply to both sides of your piece thinly, but dont press them together * Keep mixing the leftover. When it starts to get tacky.... however long that is (it might be 10 to 12 mins) * Press the sides together and hold gently for an additional 5 minutes. * Sing a song while you do this to help not get bored out of your mind while you hold! Fourth - adjustment! Because it takes a long time to cure, its still soft and pliable 20 minutes after it sets. THIS IS A HUGE ADVANTAGE if you think about it, because if you have several pieces to glue together, e.g. a handle for a mug, you can work on the remaining pieces and theres some flexibility if you didnt get the joint exactly right for the glued joints to bend a bit while setting the next segment. Lastly - cure time - it *really* needs 48 hours. Not 24. Dont get tempted to use too soon! I havent yet tested for diswasherability or mircro-waveableness. Id not use it for a food-contact bowl on the inside. Who knows what its made of (except of course good ol J.B.)

Used to fix a couple PVC figurines broken in transit. Bond was strong and clear - could barely tell it was fixed up at all. Would definitely use again the next time the opportunity presents itself.
