Bondic - UV curing glue

[Bexley]

Bondic

I can think of about a million uses for this. If it's sandable (as they claim) it would make for a super speedy gap filler. Also, the fact that it doesn't dry out means it could be applied with something like a super fine hypodermic needle for gluing really tiny things. Plus, you could clean it up, tweak positioning, and get everything just so before hitting it with the UV light.

I wonder how this stuff is different/better, etc...than the typical jeweler's UV glue, they are asking a lot more for it anyway...

Ok. Looking at the company page, the starter kit ($21.90) comes with applicator, UV light and 4 gram tube of liquid plastic. The replacement cartridge is $12.59

One drawback is it must be visible to light.   Couldn't be used in a hidden application.
But I can think of numerous other uses.

Please explain what you mean. As I understood the description the only potential problem would be using it under bright light, mainly sunlight, where it would harden too soon. A hidden application should be fine, provided you can get the UV light inside to cause it to cure. Yes? No? -- Russ

it's the same process that a dentist uses to set your crown, just keep your mouth closed when modeling

Gil, go stand in the corner. -- Russ

What I was saying Russ, is that if you were trying to surface glue two non-transparent pieces together, the UV light wouldn't penetrate the item to harden the glue.   The only area that would harden is along the edges.   The portion underneath the surfaces would remain liquid.
But I do think this is an affordable item worth trying out.

Thanks, Dave. Now I get it. -- Russ
