Heavy Thin Super Glue, EM-40

Starbond Heavy Thin Super glue EM-40, is a thin Super glue with a slightly thicker viscosity — the perfect solution to watery glue!  This “finishing” Super glue is well-known for it’s polished finish when several coats are applied, sanded, and shined.  With capillary action, it soaks into the smallest cracks and pores to seal and stabilize, while it’s olive oil-like texture makes it a little easier to work with in certain applications.  Whether you’re turning wood or working with mother of pearl inlays, Starbond Heavy Thin EM-40 is your go-to glue! 

 Want to keep the hold, but prevent absorption?  No problem – we have the perfect solution!  Starbond Accelerator keeps our glues from seeping into porous surfaces – the instant cure for unwanted wicking!

Customer for many years-Great service and shipping!

This Heavy Thin CA glue works great in the woodworking craft I do. Easy to use and I purchased the 16oz bottle with extra bottles and the micro-tips to put the CA glue almost precisely where you need it. ( This would be my 2-3 16oz bottle). The Black CA works great for filling cracks around a walnut knot or enhancing the knot or crack. I used the thin CA to glue the back plate with the front bucking horse and used a contrasting color to complete the ornament. Many sold!

I love these products. I have the clear, brown, and black. The small tips make it easy for precise work with little no cleanup. I will be ordering more. Using the black to glue down these thin strips was very time saving.

I have wanted to try Starbound for quite sometime and finally have a project that requires the filling of holes.I ordered a couple of bottles and it arrived quickly. I'm working with some Spalted Hackberry and the big voids were still packed with dust. I applied several drops to each void, let it soak in and applied more. After repeating this several times, I sprayed on the activator. Worked like charm! After planing and sanding, the holes look like part of the wood. I'll be using more Starbond- the stuff is awesome!

I use Starbond to make ink pen blanks it has never let me down. I also use it as a finish.

I work with spalted maple, which can be soft and punky. I use Starbond's Heavy Thin CA to firm up soft wood that allows me to turn it into art. These three pieces are examples of how I use Starbond's Heavy Thin CA in my work. It is truly an outstanding product and I rely on it in my woodshop. Dave Snyder Custom Woodworking Pittsfield Maine.
