Spec me some super glue please

SexyGreyFox · 20 May 2015 at 22:11

I'm sick to death of buying a tube of super glue, using it once and then coming back to it a year later and it's unusable.
So spec me some where I can use it a year later and it hasn't clogged the hole up.

Thanks

Keep the super glue in the fridge.

I have about 20 Man drawers, putting glue in the fridge would be a step too far.

WON'T CLOG – anti-clog tip with metal pin keeps nozzle clean.

In all my years of glue sticking (glue sniffing?) I have never come across a situation that requires the advice of GD on what superglue is best that will sit on a shelf for a year?

Just buy one, if it needs to be replaced a year later, replace it. It's not like it costs £25 a tube.or something.

I think you're missing the point by a long way.
My post was at 22.11 WHEN I NEEDED IT.
Why should I have to get in my car and drive 2 miles to a 24 hour Tesco so I can fix the item?
All I want is a bloody bottle of super glue I can re-use when needed.

Hang your head in shame.

I think I might try that Gorilla Glue but woe betide if I come to it in 2 years and it's clogged up.

You mean Amazon?

You can't say Amazon, PC World, Maplin or PC 2050 on London Road - FACT.

Not sure about the last one.

Hate to say this but the loctite stuff we use at work has the same anti-block pin and it doesn't work. Might be better than without a pin but it will still block eventually. Also the glue still goes off, that's why our stuff comes stamped up with a shelf life.

I'm not falling for your doomed words of wisdom.
The calendar is set.

I can confirm that my Gorilla Glue works a treat after leaving it for a year.
Thanks for the suggestion.

But i still subscribe to the 10 pack from poundland method

Gorilla is the way to go.
You know damn well you will use the Poundland once and then throw it away.

It lasted about another year and was completely dried up.
The bottle after that I can get in it with an implement and use the glue, I recently fixed an inner tube with it but I've bought another bottle.

Thanks for caring - old one on the left

Might be 6 years too late but I keep it in the freezer and never have issues.

Ooh

I know you said freezer but will the fridge do?
