J-B Weld 8267-S STIK Review

J-B Weld 8267-S STIKLike 45 billion other people, I saw the Mighty Putty commercial on TV and thought it sounded great. My husband sighed and said, that's been around forever, and a lot cheaper, too.

So I looked around and lo and behold, J-B Weld IS "Mighty Putty," minus the horrific shipping and 'processing' fee.

I bought this at a local hardware store to test it out (around $3 if you can get find it; my husband suggest an auto parts store.) It does work like the commercial says. I wanted to put up a towel rack in a guest bathroom without drilling through the tile.

Well, it worked. Set up in a few minutes. Next day you could hang Billy Mays from it, and I don't think it'd break.

I'd highly recommend the J-B brand, unless you've got a lotta spare cash and you want to make sure Billy Mays retires in style!

CarGo 16002 QuikSteel Steel Reinforced Epoxy Putty Repair, Blister Pack - 2 oz. Review

CarGo 16002 QuikSteel Steel Reinforced Epoxy Putty Repair, Blister Pack - 2 oz.While my house was being painted one of the front exterior light fixtures was accidentally broken off at the stem where the glass enclosure attached to the base. The fixture was made out of cast aluminum. I managed to attach the outside part to the base using a two-base epoxy but the stem for the light socket that holds the bulb wouldn't hold with the epoxy because I couldn't get them to match exactly and it was difficult to position the piece. I looked around for a different adhesive and discovered this steel reinforced epoxy putty, the idea sounded enticing. Bought a tube of the product and followed the instructions which basically goes like this, cut off a piece of putty to the size you think you will need then begin to knead the putty to a uniform color (the putty consists of an dark activator core and the outer lighter colored steel putty layer). I molded the putty around the stem and to the base, you have about 4-5 minutes to get the putty into position before it hardens to a hard metal. Worked like a dream. Recommended for those hard to achieve bonds.
