Yes been there! Why I use only Loctite gel and coraladdiction.com ultimate coral glue gel. I always get the 2oz bottle. Goes a long, long way.

Which loctite glue? Do you use it for rock work?

I use this & have had no problems. It says to first shake the bottle b4 opening... did you do this?
I love it bc it doesn't take a killer grip--- which I don't have. I have used several bottles with no problems. [emoji171]

I have had good success with the Gel they sell at Dollar General. it has been good and thick and done me right.

I have a Dollar General about a block from my house and that's what I typically use. I just happened to get a 3 pack from HD when I was getting a few other things, but that won't be happening again.

Gel cyanoacrylate glues have different viscosity.

The best stuff can be purchased from a crafts store.

No it shouldn't, maybe I didn't have the cap on it completely?!?
And if u do open it up there is a lot left in the loctite brand glue.

Anytime I've had troubles with it, I just snip a little more off of the spout. It's worked every time for me.

I use the Loctite as well. I tried Gorilla brand not too long ago and wasn't impressed. Of the easily available brands Loctite has been the best so far.
