midnight 657 Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 ha ha , i say dangerouse because i mate of mine who is not stupid , got some on his hands , so he rinsed his hands in thinners , its just smeared . so he thought soap and water might do it ................. it multiplied and smeared more , he ended up with his whole hands covered , it took a month and all the skin of his hands for it to come off , while he was waiting he thought il google this and see what the answer is , and he said before he finnished typing , how do you get gorrila glue off , google offered pages of posts world wide with people that had got it on them and where also waiting , the wosrt thing was it looked like dried shit on his fingers !!! apoxi is tried tested and aproved by everyone and all it takes is a little of the mrs nail varnish remover to wipe it off your skin side board or where ever you dont want it . is peels off when you have bath aswell , get latex gloves and a £1 bottle of nail varnish remover from asda and your good to go . B&Q sell latex gloves in small packets they sell the eveostick 2 part apoxi (rapid set) and the the little clamps you need to clamp up while it sets , make life easy when you can i say !! goprila glue foams up a little too, and id worry it might part knife from scale through that time , you clamping would need to be spot on , iv clampoed 100's of knives now and iv still not go a fool proof way of doing it , i need to advjust as a i clamp to get a nice fit . im not right of course there is im sure many ways to do it but that is mine born from practicality ,safety, and not pissing the mrs off when im making a mess or got turd fingers from dried glue ha ha . 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
