    I used the Loctite ultimate power grab for a marble break repair. The adhesive states it can be used on marble, granite etc.. First off its a jelly like adhesive and easy to use and dispense. Hoping for great results after 24 hours.

      Epoxy would have been my choice of adhesives in your situation.

  • @OldHickory7
    @OldHickory7 4 роки тому +2

    What do you think about using this as a clear caulk too (it would just be excessively adhesive)? But more so, if you have a very small, like one tile project, and, for instance, you don't want to break open a whole caulk tube for it.

    loctite seam to make the best adhesives, such as there superglue, which holds plastic to plastic even under stress (where i used it, on clips holding motorcycle plastics together and so far after heavy knocks the clips havent broken again) and there stuff that stops bolts from vibrating apart, which ive also used works great.

    This stuff really is super. I keep a tube or two in just for general supply. It would be nest to see him do a shear test on the glued panels, vs. just ah "ughhhh" pull test by hand.

    💥You could have used Dap caulk exactly the same way and 24 hours later it would have bonded just the same. I am still trying to figure out what the advantage of this is over basic Caulk which is half the price. Has anyone anyone tried to remove a piece of base trim that has been caulked onto a wall.??

      I've tried this and believe it or not as good as the Power Grab is it didn't work for long. What happened to me is once the discs warmed up from using the brakes it melted the glue. My driving habits may not be normal as I race rally cars and drive NASCAR style down the tar roads in central NH. ua-cam.com/video/KjWCUwlkbP8/v-deo.html Often I'm going about 100 mph and the brake discs glow cherry red at night when I left-foot brake through the curves.

      Jeffrey, the *power is in the question*. My initial response would be, "Hell yes, you can use it to hang a shower bar. You can also use sperm whale blood because the protein in it as it dries is almost as strong as epoxy." You need to engage your God-given critical-thinking skills and ask the correct question in the future. I would suggest you ask: "What is the BEST WAY to hang a shower bar?" My answer then would have been: "When you read the instructions that were written by the bar manufacturer, WHAT DID THEY SAY TO DO?"

      I just used it on tile backsplash in the kitchen. It seems to be working amazing. It says it is zero second set and that is pretty accurate. You can slide it around for a minute or so at least. But once you let go it holds and you can move on. I started with the normal mortar stuff and that kept sliding down. I had to shim it till it drys in like 24 hours. The Power Grab tiles.... no slip and they seem to be holding just fine so far. And they are large tiles.
