Also got a good storage tip from them. Keep unused glue in the refrigerator it keeps a looooong time. :wink:

I've used loctite, pine ridge and goat tuff. All have worked very well, but like many things its the prep that makes all the difference. 1250-1500 grit wet/dry paper works well, and acetone to clean with. They never rip off.
