The article discusses the challenges of using cyanoacrylate adhesives, commonly known as superglue, for repairs. While they are effective for many materials, their performance is inconsistent, especially under extreme temperature conditions. The author emphasizes the importance of caution, noting how easily they bond to skin. In contrast, a UV resin adhesive is introduced as a more forgiving option for repairs, allowing more working time before curing with the application of UV light, providing an alternative for those seeking reliable fixes.
I've found that the performance of cyanoacrylate adhesives varies a lot, sticking well to some things but not so well to others. Its repairs can disappoint in extreme temperatures.
After decades of using cyanoacrylate for repairs, I'm still wary of it. It sticks well to human skin, which is why I always wear gloves during use.
