I love super glue...has helped me in many a scenario to fix an item that quite frankly would otherwise go in the trash. However, I hate that I would have to buy a big or small tube and it would just dry up at the tip & never re-open or squeezing the tube was so darn hard my fingers would hurt only to realize it dried up.

I purchased a few super glues to try out, this one, Krazy Glue Single Use and Locite. As far as glue function, they were all fine...but this one is def my favorite for the following:

1) I actually prefer a mini size that is reusable vs. single use. Rarely do I need alot of superglue beyond what is in a tube, but mostly I def don't need a whole tube or even a single use tube. This way, I can close it up and use it later.
2) So far, no drying. The glue has stayed usable beyond a month when I re-use it.
3) Easy to open...not as easy the first time (you do have to break the seal - AND definitely keep the tip aimed away from anything!), but after that...it's a simple twist off cap.
4) Easy to use...it's the same thing as a toothpaste tube but tiny.

Not sure what to say about it, its super glue. It does what super glue is suppose to do. I had no problems with packaging. You slit the labels front and back with your thumb nail, then pull bottom half from top half of the container. Little wiggling helps. And nice thing it snaps back together so the individual tubes dont get lost.

Frankly I have never been impressed with super glue, whatever the brand. But I needed to repair hard plastic intake air tube on my old Ranger pickup. New ones are an obscene price, old ones with holes next to impossible to repair since nothing really sticks to the plastic. Last used in 1994 so junkyard ones not any better shape than mine. Found on web that super glue plus baking soda (yea the kind you use in the kitchen) makes a fast hard bond even on plastics like polyethelene or polypropolene. There are youtube videos of people repairing plastic radiators and the like.

So get it today and try it. Its no less than miraculous used like this. I cant say how it holds up over time. But ANYTHING that can grab hard plastic like this deserves some respect. To use it you squirt out bit of the super glue, then sprinkle it with baking soda. It cures immediately into a very very hard mass. Dust off any excess baking soda. You built it up in alternate layers.

Comes in a nice sturdy plastic box so I don't have to worry about the glue getting crushed in my deep freeze. Easy to open tubes. Holds well.

Reading the reviews on here it seems that some people have had problems with opening or using this product. Some tips:

To open the box, slit the labels on the front and back of the box where they cover the seam, then pull the top off. Do not cut the plastic.

To open the tubes, unscrew the clear applicator (leave the red cap on it), remove the red o-ring, then screw down the clear applicator (with the red cap on it). These tubes will leak around the threads if you do not remove the red o-ring and screw the clear applicator tip down to puncture the tube. These directions are on both the tubes themselves and the box.

Always remove sharp/large rings and wear disposable gloves when handling glue. The directions say to use aluminum foil to protect your surface, but I usually use a flattened cardboard box. It will soak right through paper towels or newspaper, gluing them to your counter (learned that one the hard way).

Cyanoacrylate (super glue) has a shelf life of one month once a tube is opened. For unopened tubes: 12 months if stored at room temperature, 18 months if stored in a refrigerator, and nearly indefinitely when stored in a freezer (nearly stops the polymerization process). If used after expiration, it may still look normal but will not hold.

Warning to Customers with Arthritis: The container these tubes are in is extremely difficult to open, and even once opened, the amount of pressure and maneuvering necessary to disengage the sections is unusually challenging. Also, because these tubes are designed as the original product, the differences are noticeable and if you are used to using any later versions (new, improved, etc.) there's a good chance that opening your first tube will be confusing. These tubes do not have a pointed part within the cap to pierce the foil seal. I could not find anything pointed, so resorted to a nearby knife point (which made a mess). Later, I learned that even though there was not a point inside the cap, there was an "o" shape ring in its place that DID pierce the foil while screwing the cap on. This original version, while applying, is very thin and runny and difficult to control, manage, and keep from dripping excessively. Drying takes much longer than expected. Finally, once I was done I found out that the product had done a better job of sealing skin on my fingertips than it had on its originally intended target! I would not recommend this product to anyone, especially arthritis sufferer, and will be returning this purchase for a more modern version. The savings is simply not worth the inconveniences experienced.

It's plain old superglue, and works fine. It is watery, so if you want it thicker, buy the gel linked below. The package is a handy place to store unopened tubes. Since people are having trouble with the packaging and giving it bad reviews: Don't cut the plastic. Just slit the front and back labels across the obvious joint, grab both ends, and pull apart. The individual tubes have a red plastic ring that must be removed before use. Once this is removed, just screw down the nozzle and it will pierce the foil. Don't squeeze the tube while screwing on the nozzle, or it will get everywhere. Super Glue 15185 Gel, 12-Pack, .07oz tubes
