Gorilla Clear Grip Contact Adhesive comes in a 3 fl oz package, part number 8040001. The maker rates it waterproof for indoor and outdoor use and says it is paintable. It is a contact adhesive. Apply it, wait about two minutes for it to partially dry, then join the parts. The bond forms immediately and can be difficult to reposition, so line everything up before you press. Full cure takes a minimum of 24 hours. The maker says to use it between 50 F and 90 F, only in a well-ventilated area, and not on food contact surfaces. It is not recommended for polystyrene, polypropylene or polyethylene products.
Our take
This suits small repairs and craft jobs where you want a waterproof, paintable bond and can line the parts up first. Skip it for polyethylene, polypropylene or polystyrene, which the maker does not recommend it for. The main limit is the unforgiving bond: it grabs at once, so a misaligned joint is hard to fix, and full cure takes at least 24 hours.
