I have used Dr Mike's model-n crafters glue for years, best darn super glue ever. But it appears Dr Mike's is no more. For those of you who are familiar with the product what have you found to replace it? Failing in that what is a good medium viscosity, quality super glue. I have heard Loctite gel is pretty good but also would want a medium. |

In the UK I use Loctite 60. There's bound to be an equivalent in the States. |

I use Gorilla Glue superglue, best I've found so far but not tried the Loctite 60. |

Never heard of it. I use Loctite gel as well. |

Absolute best Super Glue I ever used in 40 years was
"Sinbad Glue" sinbadglue.net Once had an old Warhammer metal Bloodthirster with big wings glued on drop to the floor and not a single part came off! Tried many others, and found none even close Kim |

I am very fond of Rapid Fix
link Glues anything to anything. Looks like its two part, but the powder is for filling, like holes for new screws. The liquid works on its own. |

Thanks for taking the time guys. Both the Sinbad and Rapid Fix remind me of Dr Mike's. Will probably give the Loctite a try for the thicker version and look into the Rapid Fix and Sinbad. |

I just use the stuff at Harbor freight, which is cheap, and have no problems, both liquid and gel. |
