Bondic UV Liquid Plastic Welder, Super Glue, Cures Quickly, UV Resin Kit with Light for Home, Plastic, Jewelry (LED Light & Liquid Cartridge in a Tin Case)

Conoscevo già questo prodotto e devo dire che non ha eguali per flessibilità di impiego. Una volta polimerizzato (bastano pochi secondi) potete facilmente carteggiarlo per dargli la forma definitiva. Eccezionale per piccole ricostruzioni su abs e plastiche in genere: ottimo anche per fori e filettature lente e da rifare. Costa un po' ma è un prodotto che risolve in modo eccellente le situazioni di bricolage che altre colle possono solo "arrangiare"

思ったより、手軽で良く接着します。あっちこっちと接着して回り接着液がなくなりそうです。

tous les objets collés avec ce produit ne tiennent pas malgré l'utilisation correcte du produit, je suis très déçue vu le prix

Saw this demonstrated on a craft programme on shopping TV. The demonstrations of it's use were somewhat underwhelming but I found the concept interesting and thought I might find uses for it, so bought one. So far it has proved very effective for sticking tiny (Ø3x1mm) rare earth magnets into paper and card craft constructions. More impressive was building a replacement hinge pin for a broken Fiskars Paper Trimmer (made from clear plastic). I'd tried various glues to stick the hinge pin back but the stresses of snapping it back into place were too much and it always broke off again. The pin was about 3mm in diameter and 8mm long so I decided to try building one in situ with Bondic. It was important to make sure all traces of glue were removed from the plastic then I applied Bondic layer by layer curing as I went until I had a pin of roughly the right proportions. It didn't look very pretty (you can sand or file the cured plastic if required) but to my delight it snapped into place on the cutter which is now working as good as new. A replacement cutter would have been £26 so the Bondic has more than paid for itself with this one repair. The curing process is so fast - literally seconds to achieve full strength - makes it a pleasure to work with. I'm optimistic I'll find other uses for Bondic in the future. The unit comes in an "aluminium" case.... first time I've seen magnets stick to aluminium! Even if it is brushed steel, the case is quite nice and keeps the light away from the unit.

Bondic is Great! Lets start with this statement: Bondic is Great! And then lets get some disclaimers out of the way... 1) Bondic will not replace superglue or epoxy in every situation. 2) It is not as strong as quality epoxy, and as it is not a true adhesive, it will not work well unless there are edges or texture for it to grab -this is why they recommend roughing the surface prior to application-. 3) It is NOT ideal for repairing clean breaks as it is not a true adhesive like super-glue and if it does not have edges and texture to grab onto it will not hold well. Also, if your material is opaque, getting the Bondic in the middle of the crack to cure may prove very difficult, as it has to be hit with Ultraviolet light in order to cure. 4) It still doesn't stick to polypropylene, nothing commercially available really does, but with the right texture it's as good or better than anything else you can buy in the store. So, what is this Bondic stuff all about? Bondic is an instant-UV-cure filler material with some adhesive properties. What this means in practice is that Bondic combines the best features of a liquid adhesive like superglue, a paste adhesive like epoxy and a filler like caulk. In it's un-cured state Bondic is a relatively thin, clear liquid that flows easily into tight spaces and forms around odd shapes (like you get in cracks and breaks in splintered plastic), but with just enough viscosity to not run all over the place, it looks and behaves very much like gel-style super glues when first squeezed out. That all changes when you hit it with the Ultraviolet LED, and it (nearly) instantly becomes a durable, clear polymer! you can fill large gaps by building up layers of the stuff, and you can sand and cut the cured material like it were soft plastic, which it essentially is. On materials with a rough, porous surface the bond strength seems quite high, but on smooth non-porous surfaces it will flake off quite readily. you also need to be aware that Bondic won't do a good job of holding your pieces in place until it gets hit with the UV, and you will need to be able to hold your working pieces in place. I've used it to tack some things onto unfinished fiberglass (a rough, and porous material) with excellent results, and have used it in place of electrical tape and heat-shrink tubing to insulate wire junctions, I have fixed a tail-light lens, sealed a leaky wire-passthrough in a "waterproof" speaker, stuck a hanger wire onto a small lamp housing, and more! I haven't tested the claim that it "works underwater" but based on the technology involved it probably does, you just have to be sure all the water has been pushed OUT of your intended joint before you cure. One caution: Bondic is cured by Ultraviolet light, and if you are working outside on a sunny day you can expect the rays of the sun to begin to cure your project AND cause build-up on the applicator nozzle in a few minutes. Shade your work area if you want to avoid this happening. Overall Bondic is a very nice addition to my toolbox and junk drawer, and is useful in a wide variety of small repair and construction projects. It's a little expensive, and could be considered a "novelty" as everything it does can be accomplished with other less expensive materials if you are patient, but it really is neat and functional stuff and although you might not wonder "how did I ever live without this?" you'll certainly hope it gets less expensive so you can use it with more abandon.
