PC Products, 20 gram, Clear Adhesive for Chair Joint and Furniture Repair

We have 4 old chairs that are old, have been abused and need some love... we still really like them though. They have character and really suit the room. But hey were so loose and falling apart that we thought we would have to take them apart and really work them over with brackets etc... I don't have time for that because this is a FULL time caregiving situation now. So I looked around for new chairs and couldn't find anything similar for under $350 each. Plus these are (mostly) solid oak, so very strong wood (they are painted white). After reading all of the reviews I decided to give this a chance - SO GLAD I DID. I am shocked how well it worked! My dad doesn't believe it could be so simple to fix the chairs. After I got everyone situated for the night, I started with my first chair. I didn't clean it well first, I should have, because some runaway glue streaked on it sealing in the dirt. It's ok, they are destined to be repainted (someday) now that they are repairable. It is tricky taking off the outer cap the first time, because the directions are not clear. You don't know what you will discover, and are warned to point it away. It's ok. It's just an outer cap. Then you twist off the actual cap (which has a metal piece that fits back down into the opening to keep it from sealing off when not in use). The package contains two fine tipped nozzles to add to the top of the bottle. The very fine point is one of the reasons this stuff works so well because you can get it right into many cracks. THERE ARE TWO, but at first I thought I only got one. Mine did not come on the blister pack and instead came in a zip-lock Mylar package. The sides compress and that hid one of my nozzles. The nozzles are very tiny - so treat them like gold. You do not want to lose them!!! And I wish the package came with at least three. The glue does seem to recede back into the bottle when you stand it upright, so the nozzles are reusable for awhile. I am not sure how many times yet, I have only done three sessions so far. The glue is VERY thin so use GOOD lighting or you will not really see what it is doing and over apply it. Also, since it is very thin, it is gravity fed. Which means if you want less coming out keep it at a steeper angle and squeeze. If you want a lot, then turn the bottle more upsidedown - but be careful, no need to squeeze!!! It's very easy, just need patience and don't rush. The chair backs are layers pressed together and due to so much going on here, some got left out in the rain. The layers started to separate on one, so I squeezed the stuff in and clamped it. Voila! It is now stabilized. I am sitting on a chair now, that was about to collapse yesterday. It was so wobbly that the seat had started to crack in several places. (I didn't realize that until I took the chair pads off) Only one went all of the way through in a small area to the bottom (I started working on the chairs upsidedown). Since the glue is VERY thin and the crack was wide without being clamped - I clamped it FIRST, then ran the glue through it as a starter pass. I left it clamped overnight. Tonight, I will work from the top and hit all of the other seat cracks along with anything else that goes down. MAKE SURE YOU WORK WITH GRAVITY and apply the glue where it will always be optimal going downwards. You can get by with a little bit of sideways action depending on the connection, but never attempt anything going upwards. It's a lot like nail glue - but not, somehow. Those vary and I have used some amazing ones, yet other ones just don't perform well. I can never tell why. I am tempted to use this on a nail next time ; ) THIS STUFF IS A MIRACLE - and I don't even care if I have to reuse it again, since it has done such an amazing job!!! These chairs were headed to the trash, or worse, about to cause an accident with an elderly person in it. Now - they are solid!!! Now, they can look forward to a new life with fresh paint (someday). AND, I saved over $1500 in new chairs (that wouldn't even be solid wood or have the nice design these have). I will be trying it out on other stuff as the need arises...

This works!

Wow, this really works well. I have a chair with wobbly joints which I’m reupholstering. During the process of removing a million staples from the frame, the chair joints began to loosen until the whole thing was quite rocky. I applied this amazing glue, using the very fine applicator nozzle, and it now feels solid again. I can’t understand how it works so well? What magic is this?? Well worth the cost. I hope it will be useable the next time I need it unlike most other superglues.

Believe it! This stuff works. Follow the directions. It is very runny, so you need to make sure that you are set up for gravity to take over and also have a rag handy to wipe up any drips or spills. It is basically strong super glue, sticky sticky sticky - don't get it on your skin! Dries quickly. Stopped the wiggly chairs. I will definitely buy again.

This works well when re tightening wood joints on chairs. But I use it to fill and seal cracks in hard wood. The fluid gets all the way into the tiny split. It fuses the wood back together and the micro cracks are stopped. Penetrares completely through the wood thickness
