Belive it mate. Used 2 different loctite products (one specifically marketed as all purpose 'super' rubber glue) - result = pants.

Why buy Nuclear stuff over Loctite? Glad you asked
1. because it works (bloody well)
2. is easy to get
3. supports guys trying to improve our hobby/sport
4. (and this is a kinda big one) the cheapest I can find your loctite 406 for is £14.30!!!!!!

Whereas the lovely Nuclear guys will do THE SAME SIZE bottle, for £3 of the Queens own.
So I can buy almost 5 bottles for the same price as one Loctite.

The defense rests.

Wow 3 quid a bottle. The defense has a great case, I really didn't think Loctite was that expensive

I'll have a look and report back on that. My arguement is based on buying a known brand and everything behind that. Any CA adhesive is a chemical and any facility we race at is fully entitled to ask for COSHH data sheets as are the organisers in the event of a heath and safety incident. With Loctite you have that with a few clicks of a smart phone.

But that said I must confess to having access to these products cheaply and money talks so as far as this thread is concerned Nuclear seems to be the way forward at £3 a bottle.

The Jury find for the defense your honor.

I hope that case didnt cost me a small fortune in legal fees

I always used to use either Pro Line or Orion CA but was getting fed up with paying about £8 for a 14g/14cc bottle, hence Nuclear RC was born and am I making a fortune selling at £3 for a 20g/20cc bottle ? Unfortunately not, do I work full time away from the RC Industry ? Yes. Not making enough money from Nuclear to retire just yet
Just trying to offer better, cheaper solutions to a very expensive hobby

And we all love you for it Big Air!!

(p.s. maybe worth getting COSHH sheets for each product, from your supplier, just in case, to keep at home)
