CA glue---thanks

[Gevaert Pierre]

Hi Gregor,

 

Here in Belgium I’ve finally found extra thin ca glue wich is called Zap ca
from Pacer.

It comes from the USA and is sold here in shops who sels miniature
airplanes.

 

Before I’ve tryed the Locktite ca glue wich was not thin enough. The results
so far with this thin Zap glue are good.

bad luck for me, because Loctite is the only brand you mentioned with the 

same brand name here in Germany. I planned to buy that Loctite stuff, but 

now I will review the situation. Does anybody know a decent CA glue that is 

sold in Europe (Germany)? What does CA stand for? I never saw it in Germany.


I think we are talking about that stuff that is sold here as Sekundenkleber,


which means a glue that glues within seconds.

 

Another question about CA on pinblocks: the theory is that the thin glue 

goes into the wood and makes the pin tighter due to swelling wood. Is it bad


when the glue goes between wood and pin? And how to prevent that? I don´t 

want to glue the pin to the wood. I want the wood to swell, right?
