Super Glue – Cyanoacrylate CA Glue – Tips and Advice
www.sunwardhobbies.ca/super-glue-cyanoacrylate-ca-glue-tips-advice/
INSTA-CURE™ has a water-thin viscosity that wicks deep into joints by capillary action and cures in a matter of a few seconds.
Surfaces to be bonded must be tight fitting and should be held together while you apply the CA around the edges of the seam.
At the moment CAs cure, they give off a vapor that can irritate the nose and eyes, so be prepared. Thin CAs work very well on balsa since they penetrate into the wood and form more than just a surface bond.
Cyanoacrylates (CAs) have become the adhesive of choice for most hobby and household applications.
High quality CAs such as INSTA-CURE™, when used properly, form bonds that in many cases are stronger than the material that is being adhered.
INSTA-CURE™ is a highly refined CA which, combined with its freshness, gives a guaranteed 2 year shelf life. CAs are reactive monomers that chemically link (polymerize) when pressed into a thin film. The very thin layer of water moisture present on most surfaces acts as an alkali, or weak base, which is the catalyst that results in bonding; however, the presence of detectable amounts of water usually degrades the performance of CAs.

Bob Smith Industries Insta Cure Super Thin CA Glue 28ml BSI102 BSI 102?
this glue is the perfection of all glue
I've used Bob Smith adhesives for a while, they're my go too. I also like the fact I can get replacement tops since they always find a way to glue themselves shut even with care after use
This does work quite well for very small and thin parts, like small pieces of photoetch, but the consistency is very thin compared to some of the other Bob Smith glues, basically like water. I find the thicker varieties a lot more useful for placing small parts, but this does have it's uses. I would recommend getting one of the very thin extension nozzles to use with this glue, as the opening on the standard bottle lets out quite a lot of glue, and it's hard to place with a toothpick or by trying to dab a small drop in place. Still though, it works just like it should, so this isn't a negative review by any means, I just don't think it's as useful as the thicker varieties.
Bob Smith Industries Insta Cure Super Thin CA Glue 28ml BSI102 BSI 102
Works great but is extremely thin (as advertised) and has a tendency to spurt out of the bottle. Handle carefully.
