Title: Best glue for fixing small crack
Post by: md126 on October 13, 2014, 05:15:00 PM

I have a small crack running length-wise along the limb (back side) for a few inches in the glass (clear). What's the best glue to fill/repair it with?  I think someone posted something similar and Bill Dunn said he uses a very very thin glue to fill it. Any ideas?

Thanks,  Mike

I suggest very thin super glue (CA) . It might take several applications followed by light sanding.

Brand specific, Loctite 420 or satellite city Hot Stuff, either will get you exactly what you want.
