Default "Krazy Glue" Usage ?

Hello:

I plan on using that "Krazy Glue" liquid (guess it's similar to the old
Eastman 910 product) to hopefully
bond well two small pieces of plastic.

Sure everyone already knows, but this is Not an epoxy type of product

Instructions aren't clear on this:

Is it better to apply a small amount to just one of the surfaces, or to
both surfaces ?

Any other info anyone might suggest in using ?

Thanks,
Bob

My vote is to just apply the glue to one side.

If you put too much on, it will just spill out the sides and need to
get cleaned up so you've wasted it.

You need to know what kind of plastic you're working with
to decide what kind of glue to use.
What sort of load it's expected to withstand would also
be helpful information.

For putting the stone back in an engagement ring?

it's superglue... give it a try...if it doesn't work, try it again.
if that doesn't work, do what you thought about doing in the first
place and get some epoxy.

If you are trying to glue Plexiglass, Lucite, i.e., acrylic, you should
use methyl dichloride. This is available in small quantities from
plastic suppliers. It is extremely runny and evaporates quickly.
Making bubble-free "museum quality" joints is an art.

There is plastic cement that will work better than Krazy glue when it
comes to plastic.

CG is worthless for anything but glueing skin.
Its too brittle for any real applications.

What are you trying to glue?

Hey, it doesn't even stick to my skin.

It's worked for me 2 or 3 times, but failed more times than that. I
may have been using too much, even though it was only a drop.

When I cut back, I had more success but that might well be a
coincidence.

Ace hardware has an epoxy for plastics, in a double syringe. Bought
it but haven't used it yet.

What are you trying to glue?
