Bondic® UV Liquid Plastic Welder with LED Light for Professional-Grade Repairs

David SevierDavid Sevier: Took a chance and ordered this and I’m glad I did. It’s amazing! This is my dogs fave toy and she always tears them up. This is our 5th one and she ripped the arm off. I was able to adhere the arm back on like it never even happened! Now I’m going to walk around the house to see what else I can repair.

Gabby: Bonded a buckle I thought it was good I let it even sit over night. Next day it broke apart. Definitely would not recommend

Arthur Zatarain: I find this product useful for some types of repair, but I don't consider it to weld or glue any material I have used. The epoxy (or whatever it is) sticks only to itself when the UV is applied. This is OK when the situation allows the gel-like fluid to get into cracks and crevices yet still be accessible to the UV light. But it won't work well for two pieces that must be simply stuck together. If the light can't reach the epoxy then it won't set up. Super glue is a better solution for that type of repair.

To repair something like broken eye glass temples, where two long pieces need to fit end-to-end, this epoxy must be applied over an inch or so to eventually form a tube surrounding the joint. That repair will work for a while, but because the epoxy doesn't stick to the plastic the joint soon slips apart. I tried using additional layers of the epoxy to lengthen the repair but no luck.

Another complaint is the tiny and flimsy switch on the UV light. It moves about 1/32 of an inch and is not easy to operate, even when using a fingernail.

Changing the battery is also difficult. Four tiny screws must be removed, after which the entire LED assembly falls apart....

Chris Hancock: I have used this glue for a couple years and it works great for specific repairs and I have no issue with the glue but the light that comes with it. Last one i purchased just weeks ago the switch on the light would turn it on steady so u had to squeeze it very hard to get it to work, one previous to that the batteries worked the first time i used it but dead the next time. Tried changing the battery's yeah good luck. Lucky I have a UV flash light use for hunting rocks.

Sonny: unlike super glue or any glue, this has the advantage of setting/hardening only when you apply the uv light which is great for this times when you need to adjust somethings just right, the strength is pretty much the same as super glue and maybe a step under gorilla glue, or maybe i need to cure the glue longer. instructions are simple and this would be a great addition for anyone doing arts and crafts, models and toys...not so much for heavy duty uses.

Moo: Pay solid attention to the directions, you must shine it for the amount of time at each part and increase time if using more than a thin layer.

It's not perfect, but when it works it works very well. That said I consider it pretty garbage that they won't even share the wavelength for curing when they give you such a crappy light. They're literally afraid someone will steal their resin recipe with that information (no joke, it's in their FAQ). And maybe that's possible, I'm no resin expert, but it also tells me they're not that confident in their product because many resins will give you this info as it's necessary for it to work.

Only thing you can do is assume 365nm would work or look up what the wavelength for dental resin is and hope it's the same. Which if it's at or near, then according to the ADA: "One of the most commonly used photoinitiators in dental resins is camphorquinone (CQ). The peak absorption range for CQ is from 455 to 481 nm, with peak absorption at approximately 469 nm."

Stiff Diaz: Estuve investigando que seria lo mejor para pegar el cuerpo de mi DRON que se cayo y se rompio un brazo de la Helice, no cualquier pegamento y no es tan facil confiar cuando va a estar sometido a vientos fuertes.. FInalmente supe que varios han reparado su dron con este producto y lo probe! Excelente porque te permite trabajar en las uniones con un "pegamento" liquido y cuando estas listo para solidificar solo pones la lampara UV incluida en el kit unos segundos y queda super solido. Lo mejor es hacer tu reparacion en capas delgadas e irlas solidificando asi logre una excelente reparacion!.

Richard W.: The product needs a surface to key into so that it has something to hold onto. If you use layers it is likely they will slowly fall off if in a high use area eg the key fob for my car keys. After 2 weeks all the glue came off in the layers that were put on.
I did not create any small holes for the glue to key into. Will now give it a go with this.

Théophile Manz: Ne peut pas réparer une vitre d'auto. C'est mieux pour des petites réparations comme un câble USB brisé. Les quantités d'adhésif très limitées. Il faut beaucoup de temps d'exposition aux UV pour couvrir la partie à traiter.
Les objets réparés ne retrouvent pas leurs solidités d'avant. Il suffit de mettre un peu de pression et l'objet se brise à nouveau. L'idée est bonne mais il y a place à l'amélioration.

Pix Doc: Have used this on a dozen projects so far. O read and re-read the directions and here's the most important part: Clean and rough up the surfaces to be joined. This is important, but not every application will allow this, because sanding the surfaces will dull and scratch so the glue will bond, but if it shows, so will the scratches. Plus, while it clings to nearly every surface, some weird plastics will NOT work. Also, if the glue is put into a blind spot where the curing light cannot reach, it will not harden. That said, this is the coolest and most terrific bonding system I've ever used and it truly takes less than 20 seconds to harden. Very useful in many situations.
