what happens when your super glue leaks.

If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

Back in my early teenage years I took a tube of super glue to an amusement park field trip sponsored by my junior high. Expecting to be mischievous and cause some creative hilarity for my friends and I. At some point the tube leaked in my Jeans pocket and glued my pants at a precarious high water stage to my leg.
Karma laughed at me for weeks as the patch of jeans I had stuck to my leg (after the scissors removed the rest) slowly relinquished grip. I got very lucky...respect the power of karma and super glue.Last edited by GrumpyDad; 02-23-2021, 01:40 AM.Harumpf!

I am also wondering what the shelf life of CA (superglue) is. The ones from HF are over year old and they don't seem to be "instantly adhereing" when I want them to.
Sites on the internet says sealed tubes of glue have shelf life of 8 to 12 months (and all mine are older than that) and opened tubes of glue if well sealed will last 6-8 Weeks.
But this one definitely stuck to the plastic box.Loring in Katy, TX USA

The single use small tubes are what I find most convenient. Put a push-pin in the dropper hole and it lasts quite a while once opened especially if stored tip-end up. There's a surprising amount of glue in those tubes. Occasionally, I'll have one lying around long enough to go off in the tube
A package of 4 individual tubes labeled as genuine Super Glue is $1 at Dollar Tree. For larger quantities, there are packages of two .25 oz tubes for the same price.

Morons gonna moron. I can't find any good use for the stuff at all. I do love a Loctite glue that contains both cyano and poly though, called Go2Glue. Very useful for some repair applications. It doesn't replace my primary shop glues (Fastcap 2P-10), but has good gap-filling and non-drip properties for certain needs.

Honestly, it doesn't show up only in certain angles.
