GEL for frags

[125reefer]

so tired of using crazy glue gel.seems like i go through a tube for each frag and at 2.50 it could get expensive.is there any gel i could use that comes in a larger size not the little squeeze tubes.

I use Icy Gel, It seems to work the best out of all I have tried, Two little fishes takes to long to dry and you need a lot of it and I tried another brand that was just garbage.

where do u get icey gel.and is it a squeeze tube or a little bottle like elmers glue size bottle

The Ic gel at manhattan aq. works really well.
Small glue size, but seems to last me pretty long.
7 bucks or so.

Josh sells the IC Gel, and if you're coming to the swap this Sat night, he'll probably have some you can buy then.

not coming to the swap but thanks marrone.so im guessing home depot or sears wouldnt carry it huh.

Home depot won't carry the brand IC Gel, but they do carry glue that is chemically similar. Look for cyanoacrylate glue gel there, it will be in small tubes but it's relatively inexpensive.

I think IC gel is the best, but the tube ALWAYS rips and I ALWAYS get my hand covered in glue haha

Since the gel is more viscous than regular crazy glue, you have a lot more control over where you put it. If you get the actual IC gel brand the tubes are pretty large, and the come with a couple a smaller tips to minimize the potential mess.

I get my gel from dollar stores.

3 pack for $1 (I just buy like 5 at a time) 15 bottles last me a long time

Same here, IC Gel is nice but the tube always crack somewhere and I'm glued all over.. I tried Smartreef gel and it's so much better- dense consistency and the tube is made of thicker metal.

+1 , this is the best glue I've tried. but when the tube gets small squeezing glue out gets tricky.
