the smoke or boiling is called kick, they sell activators you spray that kick the CA glue as well. is a exothermic reaction but is rare to start any fires as the reaction is very tiny and short in time, also it isn't making a ton of external heat but is a thing to know and be careful of.

I think most will agree that epoxy is better than CA last longer stronger not as brittle, etc. there is a five minute epoxy and I don’t know how it compares to regular epoxy, but I am using whatever epoxy I can get a hold of and mixing it with a product called fillet Which is a super fine sawdust like filler designed to mix with epoxy and thicken it which looks better than sawdust sands better than sawdust and I think it’s just overall superior to CA glue, which I don’t trust to be strong in the long run sold by West company to their boaters customers who use it to get a few more years out of Weatherwood by filling in all the cracks

I always seem to cut my fingers or once smashed a finger in between 2 landscape blocks. Anyway clean the wound let dry . Cut nylon hosiery into 1/2" strips a few inches long . Apply small bit of your favorite SY-AN-O AK-RIL-LATE glue on your finger that has been a victim of a accident. This is the starting point for the nylon strip, do this carefully . Keep applying glue and laying nylon on the length of finger just like you would put on a bandage. Where a joint is don't apply the glue this will allow your finger to bend. I always completely wrap mine to where there is not any skin exposed from beginning to end of wrap. This will take about 5-10 minutes to dry. When it is dry it will be hard as a cast put on at a hospital. If you try to keep this from getting soaked it will be good for a couple days . Take some scissors and cut it off when your ready to remove it. If you cleaned it really good it will heal in 1/2 the time than a bandage and you won't feel any pain when you grab stuff. It literally is a home made cast and almost indestructible. I was splitting wood and stacking a Ash tree that was 40'-50' tall in July temp was in the 90's and humid. and the "cast stayed on my finger for 2 days. I had smashed it, it was almost pain free . Try it next time you will be glad you did.

I have used this technique on fixing wood gun grips and stocks, my question is can the area hold a screw after it is cured and dressed?
@JeffEstesBuilds
3 жыл бұрын
Excellent question. Short answer, don't trust just a filler of ANY kind to hold a screw like the original fibers of wood. Instead, take a match stick, carve it down to a small point and jam it into the hole with wood glue, or super glue if desired. Once in the hole, score the stick and snap it off like a shim. It does not need to fill the hole perfectly if your going to put a new screw into it. The new screw head will "explode" the wood giving it proper grip that is chemically attached at the grain level. Keep the work area clean on a gun stock, tape off before glue and be prepared to wipe off excess immediately. I will make a video this week for ya!

@JeffEstesBuilds

In my experience the polyurethane glue is either expanding (Gorilla Glue) or the kind in the tube for general construction adhesion (PL, Marine Glue etc.). In a situation for a wood filler I would stick with a glue like CA or traditional wood glue for speed, ease of use and consistency. The Poly glues are fantastic for strength and water resistance but get SUPER messy if moved around.

The more build in the finish the better off you would be to avoid this. @@joshuasmith1215

Yes, but be mindful not to over-buff the stain that sits on the dried glue. It will take a lighter shade. I would be fragile on that area and if you want it / need it to go darker, spot some on with a rag. Let dry, and spot wax-free shellac to lock it in before your top coat. Be sure to wax free shellac the entire piece to insure a uniform top coat! Any sealer should work, but I have had great results with wax free shellac.

It will darken with stain, but will still maintain elements of translucent characteristics. The less you buff that particular area of stain off, the darker it will take, just be careful on your top coat and letting stain properly dry. To really lock in questionable stain areas I always use de-waxed clear shellac, this allows for any top coat.

yes there is, but you would have to act quickly. I would try a powdered resin dye found on amazon, fill the hole or void with the powder and add the glue directly on top of that, in place of sawdust. Usually you can mix the powder dye directly into resin or epoxy but in this case you will need to treat the dye like your filler dust.
