Anyone used this Supafix stuff?

Tommy_Gun

Hi guys,

My mate has been using Supafix and Q-bond and swears by it but just wanted to see if anyone else has used it?
Is it any good?
I can't think its as good as both videos make out!

I have a few repairs to do on my faring and indicator bracket but a little unsure what with leave the best repair.
Looked at JB weld too!

Thanks

A two-part epoxy like araldite.

Baking soda works well as a filler for superglue.

Take a look at Gorilla glue.
I use their gaffa tape, makes you sweat trying to pull it off the roll, you need clean dry hands.

If your repairing GRP, you need an acrylic based epoxy, the regular stuff will not do the job.

That's expensive and it doesn't really say what it is or what it bonds.

For that price I buy 50ml bottles of Everbuild superglue, it's industrial strength, bonds almost anything (but prefers fingers) and has a shear strength of 20Nmm2.

But as I said above, for GRP you want acrylic. Basically the stuff they use on boats.

Used this on fairings before with good results.
