Pros: Good product, strong bond, easy to mix and apply. It is very good for bonding plastics such as ABS or PP, while Epoxy does not have the same strong adhesion properties on these.
Cons: Has some odd scenting fumes. The tubes are small (10g each).
Other Thoughts: Glue has a milky appearance after cured. One of the components is pale red while the other is pale blue so to differentiate between both.
This glue does not have Epoxy and is NOT similar to "Araldite" as mentioned earlier. It is a different glue since it has Acrylate on its composition, so different properties are expected.
Bottomline: Buy it if you are a hobbyist/DIY guy/girl. You will find where to use it.
in brasil is called araudite

Pros: Great glue, works really well, only does its job
otima cola, faz seu trabalho perfeitamente.
Cons: smells a lot, use outdoors
tem um cheiro muito forte, use em areas abertas
Other Thoughts: in brazil this glue is called ARAUDITE. the price is a little bit cheaper than here in Brazil, well is a good product.
temos esta cola no brasil, a famosa araudite. o preco e bom, um pouco mais barato do que no brasil. e o produto e bom tambe
Bottomline: its perfect for all uses. works well from -60c to 100c in degrees. well if you need buy it
otima para qualquer tipo de uso. funciona de menos 60 graus celcius ate 100 graus celcius.
Great glue for small repairs.

Pros: Excellent product where the fine nozzles allow for using just the tiny amount you need..
I don't bother with five minute epoxy anymore, I much prefer this stuff.
Sets solid in about five minutes so you can even hold bits together for that long and not bother with clamps.
Cons: as others have mentioned, the glue smells, a lot - use in a well ventilated area
Other Thoughts: The glue hardens to a milky white color.
This will work fairly well in small quantities, but since the hardening process speeds up with larger volume it will harden before it can be mixed fully.
Bottomline: Good glue, worth the money. for something serious you better use some loctite, araldite or some expensive glue of your choice.
There's a nasa spaceship picture at the back of the card, but i don't think any one would put this on such an expensive think... more likely to use on a coke/mentos rocket.
I love this stuff and just keep buying more

Pros: Excellent product where the fine nozzles allow for using just the tiny amount you need..

Sets solid in about five minutes so you can even hold bits together for that long and not bother with clamps.
Cons: None at all.
Other Thoughts: The reason I have to keep buying more is that I keep giving away samples to friends. Bit like those great little DX keychain flashlights and I must have given away a few hundred of those.
Bottomline: I recommend this glue for attaching many of the best buys in DX LED lamps. It is a better solution than double sided adhesive tape.
