I'm going to give this a try. I broke my favorite coffee mug by forgetting it in.... the freezer. Thankfully it didn't break up to much. Just two fragments from the bottom and a crack up the side. I'm looking forward on trying your method.
A word of warning - it does say on the packet "do not use to repair or bond items that will contact food or drink".... So if you plan to carry on using the mug, and the glue is going to come into contact with the coffee, then I don't think this is a good idea.
I disagree. UHU Power is what I use. Fixed a large bowl last month, broken into 7 pieces, made it water-tight.Thinner joins than you have so I ended up with the pieces being less than a millimetre out of alignment overall.
Thanks for the video, however, it would have been helpful if you mentioned what you were repairing. I thought it was a toilet tank. Do you know if this glue is waterproof and will stand up in the part of the toilet bowl which does not have contact with water unless there might be a leak which would be immediately noticed?
I was mending a bread bin. I wouldn't rely on this for a toilet tank or bowl. Repairing something like that is going to be problematic but I suggest you Google epoxy type resins that are designed for the purpose.
I am making jewelry and art pieces by gluing ceramic doll parts (not matching - heads to arms, legs to bodies, etc.)) together - what glue do you recommend to provide a strong hold for all these mismatched parts? Thank you!
+Charlie DIYte Thanks for warning that this is not a good method for ceramics that will be used for food! I've broken my coffee mug, any suggestion for a glue that can be used on this, safe for drinking tea and coffee again from this mug after repair? Thanks! :)
This epoxy is very strong, Elizabeth, but tricky to do an invisible repair with as it's quite thick and gloupy. Have a look at what ceramic super glues there are at your local DIY store, and maybe try with that.
I was planing to glue a mug handle back to my mug it broke in to 4 pieces tho 😂 but i love the mug. Is it possible that i can still hold it by the handle if i use the 2 part adhesive?
@@CharlieDIYte Chears, I still use it without the handle but i want the hsndle since it looks a lot better with than without... Think ill glue it back but obviously not hold it by the handle
I’ve got a question can this 2 part epoxy be used on a top plate ( gets hot ) from bottom warmer ! The top plate broken in 2 pieces , I figured it’s repairable but worries me bcoz of the heat from warmer 🫤!
Tell me a bit more about this job - I'm not sure what you mean by the plaster handcasts and wooden shadow box. This glue is suitable for metal, wood, masonry, ceramic, glass dry concrete, chipboard, leather, cardboard, fabric, rubber and most plastics (except polyethylene, polypropylene, Teflon). If you are going to use this, the handcasts must be dust free. The parts (your plaster hand cast and shadow box) would be repositionable for 4 minutes. You have to apply light pressure to the joint until set (clamps or tape) for around 20 minutes. It attains full strength within 2 hours.
Hello Charlie, I was trying to fit a wash basin to the wall by drilling through the fixing holes and managed to break both sides. I can no longer screw the basin to the wall.Can I use this glue to fix the two broken pieces back and will it be strong enough to hold the basin,which is resting on a pedalstal,against the wall?
What happened? Were you trying to enlarge the holes? You could try this stuff but I'm not sure it will be strong enough. Has it split the hole in half? In which case you could buy some washers and the washer will grab half of the hole? Maybe send me a picture to charliediyte@gmail.com so I can understand the damage a little better and then give you some targeted ideas.
Will this glue soften with heat? I want to glue the handle back on a ceramic mug. The glue will not contact the drink but boiling water will heat the ceramic.
You may need to get a pro in to fix it - they can do pretty good, near invisible repairs. Something similar happened to us on the belfast sink in our kitchen - big chunk came off it and I used an epoxy filler from Plastic Padding to glue it back into place - fine for us but the damage is very obvious but this might be more suitable goo.gl/54hf9R If the enamel is white you'll stand a reasonable chance of doing a decent repair. If your sink isn't white it's going to be more tricky..
Yüksel Hassan I don't see why not. How strong the repair will be will depend on the thickness of the plastic you're glueing together - as if the two pieces are very thin the surface area for the glue to adhere to will be very small and so the join may not be that good. If on the other hand they are quite thick then you have a good chance. You will need to be careful not to apply too much glue as if it squeezes out on top of the lid, it may be hard to clean off, being plastic.
Ha! I don't know why I assumed it was plastic!! Then yes, this glue would definitely work. The other glue you might look at is this www.gorillatough.com/gorilla-glue . I've heard a lot of good things about it but haven't tried it myself yet. If you do use Gorilla Glue, you will need to damp the two surfaces first (as it is cured with moisture) and apply only a very thin bead as it expands 3-4 times whilst curing! You will also need to find a good way to grip the two parts of the toilet tank lid together for 1-2 hours whilst it sets, and be prepared to trim off the excess that has expanded out of the join, once it's set.
Broke my sink, dropped a large glass bottle in it and it chipped the sink and also left long hairline fractures from one size of the sink to the other. It does leak and I just filled the chipped area with some clear epoxy and used my finger to wipe some along the crack. Will sand everything flush once it cures. Is this repairable? Ty
Hi James, I think there are some repair kits out there, eg ua-cam.com/video/cVKk-Iel5K0/v-deo.html but it's quite an involved process that is a bit more technical than just buying a tube of epoxy, and you may need to open up the hairline crack a bit to ensure that you get a sufficient amount of the repair epoxy in there. If you are going sand, remember to use the right sand paper - eg start on 200, go up to 800 and finish on 2000 grit (I warned you it was pretty involved!) Good luck!

Charlie DIYte Good to know. Thanks. I'll do some more research.
G-Master Sub-Zero did you find anything??
@@CharlieDIYte Thank you, my Friend needed this Video
LOL - Q: Why am I using this glue instead of superglue? A: Because I feel this is the best way.
Thanks for making the video.Now i can start the procedure
You're welcome.
Hey Charlie thanks for all the information do you have any ideas for repairing outside wall ceramics in the heat?
Great presentation, thank you my friend.
Nice presentation
Thanks 👍🏻
Is there something special about this epoxy or is it just a common brand in the UK? We have many types of epoxies here in the USA>
I disagree.
UHU Power is what I use. Fixed a large bowl last month, broken into 7 pieces, made it water-tight.Thinner joins than you have so I ended up with the pieces being less than a millimetre out of alignment overall.
Can i use this on to glue the audio subwoofer speaker spider to the speaker frame ?

He absolutely said that he was repairing a bread bin. And..after the repair when the lid was placed on the bin didn't you recognize what it was???
It looks like a toilet to me
Where is the laugh button when you need it! Actually, he did mention it in the beginning, but it did look like a toilet tank!

I wouldn't recommend gluing the mug and then using it, but you could certainly glue it back together with this stuff.

Yes it will, albeit I'm not sure at what temperature. Best not to risk it!
@@CharlieDIYte is there anything to use on a crock pot? My pot has a small hairline fracture that I'm trying to fix if possible. Thanks!!

You're welcome. Good stuff this. Can't go wrong with any epoxy resin, really 👍🏻
Does e6000 glue work?
Does it work on roof tiles?
I think you'd be better off buying a new tile from your local roofing supplier.
Unfortunately the tiles are too old and not compatible with new tiles. And I can't replace all the tiles - the others are like new.
can you glue a broken toilet tank lid with this?
Yüksel Hassan I don't see why not. How strong the repair will be will depend on the thickness of the plastic you're glueing together - as if the two pieces are very thin the surface area for the glue to adhere to will be very small and so the join may not be that good.

You will need to be careful not to apply too much glue as if it squeezes out on top of the lid, it may be hard to clean off, being plastic.
Thank you, but the lid is a thick ceramic or whatever they make toilets tanks these days cheers

Yüksel Hassan broken ceramic tolet water contaner
Can it also repair tolite sit
I think probably too much pressure on a toilet seat. Depends where the break is and how much surface area you've got to glue.
What's the price?
what about a toillette bowl
I think if it's cracked your best bet is to replace it.

Is it food safe ??
I wouldn't advise it.
@@CharlieDIYte I saw after your answer in the comments, thanks for that. By the way what would you advice to glue that is food safe?
Is it safe to use on kitchenware you eat and drink from?
Jedi Vague Unfortunately not.
On a handle repair outside not, touching food why not?
what is the name of the glue
Charlotte Pall Araldite. Click on the little down arrow to the right of the video title and it opens up the description where you'll find links to all the products mentioned in the video.
The name is Bond, Harold Ite Bond.
Very good 👍

Thanks Gordon Ramsey!
Super Glue is always too brittle..
Did anyone else think it’s was a toilet tank at first 😁
Does look like one 😉👍
throw it out, the crack will open again eventually. There is no such thing as a permanent glue repair for ceramics using off the shelf products.
Who said It's was permeant he didn't in the video
You can still see the crack 🙄
Yes you can. Unfortunately once you break or crack ceramic there's not much you can do about it.
Nothing a little filler and sanding won't fix.
