Slow Jet Extra Thick Professional Grade:

I like the convenience of large quantities. If you are just beginning to experiment with gluing and do not have several specemens to attach it would be best to stick to the smaller bottels. We have also noticed that this pacticular glue does not work well with heavier cuttings. Good for base rock gluing out of water but, does not hold for an extended period.
Net Wt. 1 oz; also available in 0.5 oz and 2 oz sizes.
Cost $4.99

Loctite® Quick Tite® Super Glue Gelmatic

This glue works the best for me in base rock gluing. This CA comes out of the dispenser very thick. I like the dispenser because it is very convenient and controllable. This CA holds the more difficult specimens in place.
Net Wt.: 5 gms

Ross Super Glue:

This CA is very good in general use. This glue seems to hold rock to rock and specimenns seem to attach with greater success than most other glues tried. With all the different glues tested at the Foundation so far this one is a favorite.
