Saturday Film Club: Supeglue and accelerators

 

I use a lot of superglue, so when Mythbusters Adam Savage recorded a video on the glue, it was going to be worth a look. There's a lot of good advice in here, especially the baking soda trick, that also turns the glue into a filler. 

He's a bit wooly on the origins of the glue and what makes it set though - but reading the comments clarifies matters a lot. Very entertaining though.

  1. Not a comment on this video. Yesterday whilst working on Leamington Station garden, I saw a class 66 with what I thought was your name in the nameplate. Have they named one in your honour or is it another "Phil Parker"?

    Love the blogs.
