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: 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.
good value

Pros: works well
separate tubes are much better that the attached tubes (loc-tite epoxy style), the attached tubes never work evenly and tend to bind up
useful to have around
certainly strong enough for general repairs and hobby work
Cons: as others have mentioned, the glue smells, a lot - use in a well ventilated area
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline: Epoxy is quite useful to have around and this is a very good price. The 2-tube format is nice as long as you don't lose one of the tubes. This is good quality for the price and is certainly worthwhile.
Great glue for small repairs.

Pros: Great acrylic glue.
Good strength.
Easy to use.
Cons: Has a very prominent smell of solvents.
Hardens VERY fast, half of the glue hardened on the mixing stick, the other half was going hard within a minute or two. I mixed up about half a CC.
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: Really cheap glue that works fairly well, but hardens too fast.
very good value!

Pros: -> The glue is very cheap and compared to more expensive ones, its weaker, but still very strong
-> Good price, may be because of the lack of care with the environment or the use of forbidden substances, but the glue is very good.
Cons: -> It smell horrible, you better use it in a well ventilated area, I don't think that's good for health.
-> Could be stronger, I found it weak, expected more.
Other Thoughts: -> If you fix lots of stuff like me, this is a good value, but the look isn't that great, looks like milk when dry.
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.
