The king of epoxies!
It's been my go-to epoxy for many years, it works perfectly every time and I can absolutely depend on it.It doesn't set quickly, so that makes it really good because it's not a race against time to get the glue where you need it before it goes off, or, to remove glue where its ended up in exactly the place that you definitely didn't;t need it!The syringe dispenser makes it really easy to use, when I first used araldite it was in separate tubes, which is ok, but it's far more messy and you have to ensure you dispense the same proportion of both parts, it comes with a stick to mix it, but I just use tea/coffee stirrers, you only need to mix it for 30 seconds and you can tell when it's mixed when you cannot see any streaks in the resin.I use my stirrer to apply the glue, in my pictures I filled a void in a 3D printed part, although the epoxy is quite a "stiff" glue, it will fill gaps as it levels itself, this allowed the epoxy to fill around my "joint" piece which connected both haves, I placed my part face down on glossy card.You need to clamp your pieces to hold everything in place while it sets, you definitely don't want it setting with pieces in the wrong place because they're not coming apart ever, I use some cheap clamps and they work great.You can see on the front that the epoxy levelled and filled in the tiny gaps, resulting in everything being bonded incredibly well, you would break the bits that weren't glued before you had anywhere near any issue with the glued section.I left it clamped for 8 hours, after which I removed the clamps and then let it sit overnight, the following morning it lifted straight from the glossy paper and revealed a very clean joint. As this part is going to be painted, I used a coarse grit sandpaper to gently and methodically work over the surface until it was level with the printed parts, at that point I worked up in various grits to 3000, after which the area where the joint and glue was smooth and flat and you are unable to feel any difference in the surface between the printed parts and this joint section, it's completely merged into the whole part.It really is one of the best glues around.

Great glue.
Really easy to use. The glue is fantastic for sticking soles of shoes. Our Grandson has a tendency to drag his feet. Saves buying a new pair of £40.00 shoes. Dries very clear.

Stay with conventional tubes!
Works well, as Araldite always does BUT the mixer tubes are pointless, particularly as there's only two.The cap isn't a great idea either.I'll buy normal tubes next time.

A bit sticky
Ordered this and was impressed with quickness of delivery. I found the ease of changing main cap to the syringe was very easy to do and was very impressed. The push down on the syringe was a bit tough but that might me be not being as strong as the glue. The bonding time was also good I like to leave these type of things at least 24 hours so I did but after the 24 hours it was still tacky but the bond held and was very strong. Left of for 36 hours and perfectly dry and held like a brick to mortar so very impressive
