AralditeRapid 15ml x 2 Tubes Epoxy

Excellent quality adhesive. Back in the day, they advertised this by gluing a car to a billboard, and it really is that strong. Best of all, it's made in the UK.

Rapid Epoxy Glue, where have you been all my life? This tiny 15ml miracle might be labeled as glue, but it’s really a relationship counselor, furniture therapist, and wizard in a tube.Backstory: My wife warned me not to jump onto our wobbly IKEA coffee table to demonstrate my “interpretive dance” skills. Spoiler alert: the table shattered into what could only be described as a pile of designer firewood, and so did my chances of peace that evening. Enter: Araldite.Pros:• Strong enough to bind my dignity back together. I glued that coffee table with Araldite, and now it’s holding on tighter than I did when I begged for forgiveness.• Works on EVERYTHING. I was feeling ambitious, so I also fixed a chair, a vase, my reading glasses, and my favorite mug. They’re now indestructible. (The table, on the other hand, could probably support a small car.)• Quick drying. By the time my wife walked back into the room, the table was back in one piece, and so was my sense of security.Cons:• Smells like I imagine a chemistry lab does right before an explosion scene in the movies. I opened a window and kept going, but wow, it’s got “character.”• I got a bit too enthusiastic and now my fingers are fused together. But on the bright side, I don’t have to wave goodbye to the delivery guy anymore. I just raise my permanent thumbs-up.Unexpected Benefits:• Superpowers? Not saying Araldite made me into a superhero, but I did repair a wobbly garden bench, and it’s holding up like it’s made of vibranium.• Therapy Tool: Every time I see that coffee table, I’m reminded that sometimes broken things can be fixed… with industrial-strength glue and a bit of humility.Final Verdict: This stuff is a game-changer. Whether you’re trying to fix furniture or your reputation, Araldite has got your back (and your coffee table). Just keep some nail polish remover handy if you’re a “creative” gluer like me.

I continue to be impressed with this epoxy resin. It, largely, just does what it is advertised to do and does so very rapidly.You really need to do your prep work before mixing these two tubes, the hardener and the epoxy. You have VERY limited time to do any once mixed. As you apply it you can soon tell that it is congealing and soon it will be unusable.So mix a little at a time and ensure you are fully ready, with clamps or holding bands (elastics etc) to be used as soon as it is applied.The smell, when the two parts of this product are mixed, is not great. But, it is doable with ventilation.I place one strip of the hardener on one side of a scrap card, and then squeeze out, not rouching, and equal part of hardener next to it. Mix both, I use a cocktail stick, and then apply.Be careful it does not get onto your hands, it is most difficult to remove from skin and clothing, I often wear disposable gloves.Why drop a point..?You need to be careful where you apply this resin. It is absolutely fine if both surfaces have no flexibility at all. BUT, it does not work well if there is a slight flexibility expected, like for shoes. It will crack along the flexible joint.Also, if possible, slightly roughening or scoring the parts to be glued helps with he bonding. That works best if the surfaces are shiny / glossy.Remember, use it very quickly or it will begin to set as you apply it.This glue has also been used to repair the shelving in both our fridge and freezer. The epoxy has not discoloured or cracked away in those places after months of use.Overall, I am very happy. Great price, it does last as long as you are careful not to mix up the lids. It is only the concern of the lack of flexibility AND not to use it for products where the glue comes into contact with food tha tyou need to be aware of.Hope this has helped you.Recommended.

I was going to try everything to fix my broken chipped toilet bowl that was moments from full collapse. I dreaded the prospect of buying a new bowl so tried this first. With my toilet's severe crack around 3/4 of the bowl's perimeter, this glued it solid. I was STUNNED! Brilliant stuff!

There are some negative reviews on this product that I don't quite understand. The instructions are easy to understand, the time frame between mixing the two parts together and it setting in place is reasonable (you can take your hands away after a few minutes and it is set properly in about 20 minutes), the scoop they give you to mix and apply it is fit for purpose and if you get any on your skin, it will wash off quickly (I washed it off immediately, so the glue had not set).I used this to glue a plate back together and you can't even tell that it was broken in the first place, it is usable and strong.This was great value for money

Always good 👍

his is my go to glue for strong bonds. It is great quality and good value for money, in my opinion. I always have some in the house. I have had an identical packet for well over 10 years and it has recently been too difficult to twist off the lids. Time for a new batch. All you have to do is to mix equal parts of the two mediums on a piece of card or paper and I agitate with a cocktail stick for 30 seconds, to mix thoroughly. You then should use the mixture within 5 minutes. You apply thinly to both surfaces and place together in the correct position. The joint should be hard enough in two hours to sand if you need to.This is a versatile glue - sticking so many types of surfaces - 'Metal, Wood, Masonry, Ceramics, Glass, Dry Concrete, Chipboard, Leather, Cardboard, Fabric, Rubber, Plastics'. I haven't had trouble with the glue leaking over the years, only the stuck on tops, however that might have been me accidentally swapping the tops over, thus gluing them in place.
