My colleagues and I have tried many means to get rid of the glue, mainly just prying at it (ouch, our fingers), poking at it with chopsticks (our chopsticks are dulled), cutting at it with knifes (I think the knife is bent), lathering on nail polish remover (my table is flooding), sawing at it with string (the string broke in half), and getting the glue stuck on our fingers, which took quite some to get off."
"* NOTE: If You Get Any On Your Skin, It Can Be Easily Removed By Buffing Lightly With An Emory Board. * It Bonds Glass, Fabric, Metal, Wood, Ceramic, Skin, Rubber, Plastic.... Everything I Have Attempted To Repair. * Today I Used This Bottle To Reattach My Broken Charcoal Grill Knob, Repair My Reading Glass, Attached The Heel On A Shoe, Put The Name Tag On My Flight Bag And To Apply Fingernails (One Drop For Nails). * With the help of my husband, We Cleaned With Peroxide, Then Applied Loctitie Professional To The Inside Wound Edges. * The Non-Drip, Precision Tip, And Gooey Texture, Make It "Super" Easy to apply in Exactly The Right Place. * Often, I do add a tiny drop of water to a surface to speed drying time. * If you have any questions feel free to click my user name, it is a hot link, and I will answer you."

"Ought this glue kit primarily for woodworking projects, used the Jel glue to glue together some scrap trim that was being used on a hobby project."
"I don't have as much need for some of the components, but it is a solid starter kit for anyone getting into the system."
"The bottles do clog over time and there isn't enough activator for the amount of glue supplied in kit."
"But the convenience of having multiple viscosity types plus the activator in the same kit...a big plus."
"My personal usage: Gel: easiest to apply but if you are not careful, the activator may set the glue before you have pressed the parts fully together."
"when i went to use the gel I found it was really hard to squeeze and get the glue out, upon further inspection it appeared to have been clogged."
"Bought this product to fill some cracked granite I had in a rental."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"For tough stickers where you don't want to scratch the product but want the sticker and adhesive gone, like with my refurbished Xbox One or my stainless steel whisk that I didn't want to scratch up with steel wool, simply scrape off what you can of the paper sticker with a food scraper (what you use while scraping food off your dishes) and then spray anything left with a nice heavy coat of WD-40. • WD-40 is also great at killing and repelling insects, including roaches and ants. Supposedly, you can also use it on your car windows in lieu of Rain-X to water and snow proof your windows, as well as to waterproof your shoes (and give leather a healthy shine), remove stains from carpet and your fridge, and remove oil stains from your garage or driveway concrete."
"Received my can of WD40 this morning the box was adequate you must press the straw head onto the can so be careful when applying the pressure to seat it."
"Stick with the old school one that you have to put the straw in the hole yourself."
"No more squeaky doors!"
"The nozzle was very runny and created a mess often (even with the smart straw), hence the missing star in my rating."
"It’s the little things, you know?"
"Why not order WD-40 from Amazon, nifty top too, I was never great at hanging onto that tiny red straw that you'd have to fit back into the little piece of tape on the side of the bottle."

Find Best Price at Amazon"(3ft by 3ft, 1/2 inch deep - with plates) I accomplished this in (2) pours, each 4 hours apart. 2) I mixed 2 gallons for 7 minutes each time and it came out awesome - don't scrape your mixing sticks when you get to the pouring part because you only want thoroughly mixed product to be poured - not remnants of either part alone that you may get if you scrape. 3) POUR PART B IN YOUR MIXING BUCKET BEFORE PART A - MIXING WILL BE SO MUCH EASIER."
"We've been using this epoxy resin to finish an outdoor coffee table and and a bathroom countertop. We are going to do our biggest project next and do our kitchen counters."
"Stir well for 5-10 min, but dont whip, should turn completely clear like water, bubbles are okay. Repeat this every 10 mins for 1 hour. Scrape epoxy from under edges and apply to any areas that may lose some from leveling."
"I had to sand down an area that bubbled up due to pouring too thick of a first coat."
"I used a high density foam roller to apply this to a painted countertop and a roller is the way to go rather than using a foam brush."
"I found this product to be easy to use and the finish extremely clear."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"I have used my hands to spread lots of things from elmers glue to jb weld. I noticed immediately that I couldn't simply rub my fingers together to "roll" the material to get it off, like you can with most glues. Now I had this satanic cement on my hand AND the paper towel had created a horrid mesh of filth that was resistant to every product known to man. I spent a minute yanking and finally got the towel off and saw the sad reality that all that pulling had made ZERO impact on removing any of the gunk. I started yelling for my wife and begged her to google this filth in order to find a solution....you know....since I couldn't use my phone for lack of having a second hand. I went and sat down on the couch dejectedly and turned on Season 5 Episode 4 of Dexter to make me feel better....although it didn't help much. I really needed to go to bed so I hit the shower and tried to wash my body with my brand new plastic hand. Even if the label on the back does say that simple rinsing of water and soap will solve the issue."
"This is a great product, a little bit tricky to use, wear heavy gloves when uses and think twice before your apply because there is no easy way to remove it also when it came in contact with other materials like concrete, wood or paint it can show up on a dark ugly color, as i said before wear gloves and protect the area you don't want to mess up."
"Filled very large holes in the exterior wood of a house ( temporary fix, Guests were on the way and no time to do proper wood work )."
"This stuff works great buy I can't emphasize this enough."

"I was in a hurry and ordered this brand rather than the other USA made brand I typically get, since The Gaffer Power tape seemed like a deal and had great reviews."
"I am not in the entertainment industry but use your tape in my workshop for a variety of jobs and and have even found it excellent for attaching sandblast stencils onto custom items which I make. If the tape will withstand 100 psi of pressurized air loaded with silicon carbide grit, it is really tough stuff."
"One of our helpers just pulled the cable up and the tape curled around and stuck to itself. First purchase worked so well that we decided to keep an additional supply on hand for our next production."
"We have dozens of different types of tape in several locations around our home. If you are used to 3 rolls for $1 department store tape, Gaffer tape might surprise you."
