Super glue and baking soda definitely works. Dries rock hard and can actually be sanded. Great for building up strength on the backside of the crack that's not visible
Love this comparison. Ive used baking soda and SG for more than a decade in with my RC sailplane field fixes. I'd suggest just a spritz of activator (btw you can also activate with water spritz). Too much activator make the glue more brittle. Id like to see a combo steel wool and baking soda fix.
When running tests like these, it is critical to make sure the paint cans are the same distance apart and that the length of plastic on the can is equal on both sides. I don't think this would affect your general conclusions, but good controls make the results more robust (speaking as a scientist 🙂)
That is what I use (baking soda) to glue large 3D printed models together. usually for a but (end ) joint some wire or mesh is needed to be hot welded, melted into plastics where strength or stress occurs. I've see ASH from a cigarette used and curious how well that may work vs baking soda?
Hi .. I’m about to fix my lvt floor as per your video with oscillating saw and glue you recommended. Should I add baking soda to it now you’ve done this test ??!😊
Try one by mixing the superglue while melting the plastic together like a weld with a butane torch but make sure the glue is added when the pastic is still semi liquified. Better use a respirator for all your tests because super glue is toxic in liquid form and you are using quite a bit with some unknown chemical reactions.
i fixed a cracked handle molded as part of a storage tub with ca glue and baking soda it eventually cracked i refixed it with butcher string and ca glue its still fixed
I would think that if you take scrapings, or a finer grind, of what you are applying the glue to and stir that into the glue and then apply it you would also achieve a stronger bond. The point is simply that ‘like’ bonds to ‘like’.

The instructions are wrong lol... Kidding aside, "a few drops" works great for a gapless repair (handle on a coffee mug, smooth metal on flat glass, etc) but this is a different technique that bridges gaps with a filler material.
ITEMS I USED ON THIS VIDEO:
- Super Glue - amzn.to/3usMEVm
- Super Glue Activator - amzn.to/42E0YXQ
- Steel Wool - amzn.to/3uw7J18
Will be good to see what the strength of the plastic piece itself. Stronger than the one repaired with the baking soda+superglue?
Funny, I've been going to do this comparison for about a week - You've saved me some work (plus buying a spring gauge), so have a sub!
Excellent very helpful.👍
Thank you so much! 🙏🏽😊

It works. I’ve used super glue with added stuff like acrylic powder. Essentially more surface area.
That's a great idea!💡
Hello and thank you for your wonderful video, I saw some people are using graphite powder I don't know which one is better.
Great experiment. Thanks.

I was going to comment the same thing, better controls will make the testing more reliable.
Good to know! You’re my go-to channel for if it’s true or not!!! So now I know!!! Thanks for another great video!
Thank you so much for the love and support my friend 🙏🏽😊
great test. thanks
Pretty cool.
My question is what is the breaking weight not glued?
Excellent video Brother
Thank you! Good job!

Good video! Curious to know why baking soda makes it so much stronger??

Yay, I won!!! I did not expect to have it to hold up to 105 pounds. lol

Some more viral hacks to test maybe:
- Graphite powder
- Activated carbon and/or charcoal dust
- Each of the above mixed with baking soda
i fixed a cracked handle molded as part of a storage tub with ca glue and baking soda
it eventually cracked
i refixed it with butcher string and ca glue
its still fixed
What about a 50-50 mix of baking soda and graphite; baking soda and steel wool; baking soda and layers of fabric rags?
First, I like this experiment I think you try superglue baking soda, and they still work
This channel is like fine wine
Thank you so much! 😊🙏🏽
Thanks!
Ya brother someone out there D bunking this amazing video
Thank you for the love and support 🙏🏽
Another great video. Thanks for sharing with us 🎉
Thank you so much 😊 🙏🏽
Useful good vid my brotha 👍🏻
cool video, wonder why the soda makes it soo strong??? gonna keep backing soda now in the garage lol😂😂😂
It’s like magic!
Baking soda + steel wool together ? 🤔
For the next test, mix the steel wool with baking soda!
Wow. Great video. Well done.
Thank you! 🙏🏽
try wood ash insread of cig ash
I’ll try next time! Thank you!
@tested should team up together

The activator messes with the process.

Instructions says to use a few drops of glue ... nor to bathe it
Nah, we fix things around here lol
