Which Glue is Best?? ShooGoo Amazing Goop E6000 and Gorilla Glue

[@rhtufts]

E6000, Shoe Goo and Amazing Goop are all variations of the same glue made by the same company. They also make E6100 which just thicker less runny version of 6000. (6100 is hard to find.) Shoe Goo has been around since the early 70's.

[@watcher818]

Interesting to know. I'll have to look around as there may be factory test data between the 3. For now, Shoe Goo is the one I am planning on using for a shoe repair. Thanks!

[@travispratt6327]

Shoe goo is the best I’ve found. When dried it’s surprisingly tough so you can use it in a structural manner and not solely rely on adhesion as well (for instance add a dovetail like socket to your pieces with a saw to fill). Really neat stuff.

[@genmasaotome3503]

Great test. One criticism with the test... the eye hook set up pulls it downward... but also puts a twist... slight difference of the orientation of the eye hooks may give more twist over the others.

[@PrincernPrince]

you keep putting the weights closer to the white bar above the eye of the screw on the first one which will help it to be stronger because the closer in the weight is the shorter the lever. The further out the weight is placed the more downward force is created on the glue. I know its only a small distance but if you're trying to do a test all conditions have to be the same for accuracy.

[@Mentorcase]

That was driving me nuts, it was more than once on the same sample so I'd say it was deliberate.

[@MrDrago1954]

Shoe goo has a Harder consistency when fully cured. Yes, still kind of rubbery but harder. E6000 is the way to go if you want something more flexible. E6000 can stretch 600 to 700 percent of its original shape and return back to the original. Take your pick. Both are probably overkill in performance when used in most common instances.

[@victorgomez4615]

So clearly I will use E6000 for my shoes for the flexibility, thanks for your comment

So I will use shoe goo to make earrings with plastic posts for sensitive ears. It is waterproof. Going to test it to see how many showers I can take before the stone falls off the post. Maybe it will just hold on forever if I’m lucky. They will have pull on them when taking the backs off but should be alright after three initial days of drying. 🤞

[@daveschidlmeier6425]

I have a pair of Muck Boots that caught on a hook and tore a hole in in the rubber side by the right ankle. They were 2 years old at the time. I purchased a 2 oz tube of E6000 rubber adhesive and repaired the wound inside an out. Thin layers inside, thick patch on the outside hole. That was 3 years ago. No leaks, and the outside patch is even hard to see now. Great Glue E6000. I still have the remainder of the E6000, and it is still pliable and good. Use some last week. Good stuff !!!

[@timscott4506]

BTW, the solvent for E6000 is dry cleaning fluid aka perchloroethylen/tetrachloroethylene. By adding this to E6000 you can make an excellent low viscosity version of the glue. I used it to seal joints in sea fishing traces, and it is untouched by saltwater immersion.

[@billwells8054]

I think I'm seeing this low viscosity E6000 waterproofing compound being advertised online a lot recently. Sure looks like it.

Thanks for taking the time to do a test like this. Really cool to see the comparison. I’ve been using shoe goo and e6000. Didn’t really know what was better. I have done one lexan body with the drywall tape and e6000. So far I’m happy. But it’s great to know the shoe goo will be just as good for that method. Thanks again. Great video!

Both Shoe Goo and E6000 take up to 72 hours to fully cure, not sure about the others but would have been nice to see how strong they are after the full curing time.

[@justadbeer]

I may be wrong here, but I think Shoo-Goo was the original stuff, being available in the late 80's, early 90's. I was told that that was what they use to bond the soles to running shoes. I've used it at work to mount steel on steel fixtures (they will never come apart even when you want to) and have even repaired several snowmobile tracks where I have torn out a stud and it worked remarkably well for that.

[@davewood2640]

I used some E6000 from a tube that was nearly dried out to the point of being like dough and it still held aluminum Gemini letters to red brick that was not cleaned on a windy cold day in the Texas panhandle. I highly recommend the brand.

[@neilfpv]

Please do one more test between shoogoo and e6000. Weight at least 5 days before doing the 70ounce test. This is amazing!

[@watcher818]

Thanks! This is one of the BEST 'test' videos I've seen on YT for glues. Taking the time to change weights, and hours of drying is something not done by others. I can now see which glue I may choose to repair the pads that have some off the bottom of running shoes. The factory didn't do a good job because in one run, they all fell off one shoe! (Asics GT-2000) Managed to retrace the run and find every one of them! Your tests helped me decide which adhesive to use. Thank you for taking the time to set up these tests. NICE RC vehicles too!

[@drog343]

I prefer the Shoo Goo myself, but have used the E6000 as well and find that it is a little easier to work with (the SG seems to thicken up quicker so you have to work faster), I also really like the various JB welds, the plastic and clear welds in particular for this hobby.

[@mnsterbruiser]

With solvent based glues it's very important to let the solvent evaporate slightly as per the instructions before pressing it together. Otherwise it never dries in the middle as it never has a chance to evaporate and activate the glue.

[@teresawolf6247]

Thank you for the info. It's amazing how people don't read any instructions.

I was wondering about how guerilla glue expands a lot, i used this glue a lot n it holds pretty good, but a lot of times some glue bubbles out a lot n can cause some problems if you dont keep wiping it off until it stops doing this, why does this glue does this?

[@kurtilingus]

I second that notion. Hell, I consider their og-flagship product/glue to be essentially a one-trick pony since it only does *one*thing better than the top tier competitors available: making a strong bond when there's a substantial gap to fill due to poor fit-up. Otherwise GGlue's contemporaries run circles around GGlue in numerous easily demonstrable ways....However, working with it is such an inevitably maddening PITA by being 100% precluded from finishing up thinking that you did "tidy work" (for me, at least), so that prevents me from ever even considering using the crap for even where it could conceivably be the objective best choice. I'd muuuuch rather do some convoluted multi-product approach that i make up on the spot that doesnt weld rock-hard giant snot bubbles onto LITERALLY EVERYTHING within the line of sight of an open bottle's dispenser, UGH

I've use Shoe Goo & Amazing Goop to do bicycle (air chamber) tire repair countless time, with just preparing the surface to be more grippy they both hold on to my air chamber which mean i do not need heavy patches that leave buldges. Because it strech i do not feel i fixed it. Just don't try to do it on an air chamber that is significantly smaller than the tire you are putting it in. Less strech = the better.

It just so happened that I was trying to decide whether to buy Gorilla Glue, E6000 or Goop when I found your video. Good job! I do have one comment. I noticed that at 38 ounces for 12 hours you hung the weight around the base of the screw eye instead of the middle of the eye on the Amazing Goop. This would have decreased the leverage of the weight. I don’t think it affected the overall results enough to worry about.

[@TheEMC99]

I love E6000. But this was fun to watch. Thanks for taking the time.

[@EPeltzer]

Very useful information from this methodical test. I now use these types of glues about half the time, they really are great. Though Super Glue and wood glues each have cases where they are the better choices. I used to use epoxies quite a lot but that is where these flexible glues have supplanted most of the time. Epoxies are stronger in theory but in practice they often crack and fail and they don't adhere as well to so many surfaces. The flex makes these much tougher and far less likely to fail on impacts. I first used Shoe Goo on tennis shoe toes in the early '80s (I was constantly wearing through the toes.) But it's quite thick and viscous. I still use it for gluing the soles of hiking boots and water sandals when they start to separate, but I usually let it dry for at least four days in that case. For the last few decades I've been using mostly Goop because it's a bit thicker than E6000, doesn't sag nearly as much when laid on thickly, but not as thick as Shoe Goo. I thought it cured a bit faster. This test makes me change my mind a bit. One thing is that Goop is available in UV resistant "Marine Grade" and I usually buy that when I find it because it really does hold up better outdoors. I see that E6000 also has a UV stable version but I've never seen that in stores. I also recently got some E6000 2 oz tube with the longer thinner spout, it's really much better and prevents the goo buildup around the cap threads you always get on the 3.7oz tubes with the large opening. Also the 2 oz might be better as the larger tubes last maybe a little too long, tend to get thick and dry towards the end of the tube. At that point they don't seem to "wet out" onto the surface of the object as well but rather just seem to sit on top and not adhere well. I see that E6000 is also available as high-viscosity (thicker) but again, never seen it in stores. I think the Eclectic glues are all basically the same product but with differing amounts of thinner added to change the viscosity. And then some UV resistant additive for those versions. If you open a tube of E6000, in a couple of months the solvent will evaporate and it will basically turn into Goop, and then Shoe Goo. Similarly if you add a bit of dry cleaning fluid, you can thin these out.

Just recently I found out it work perfect to glue the bottoms of shoes and cleats back to the boot part of the shoe. Excellent permanent Bond and since when it cures it is kind of elastic and flexible, it feels very natural under the foot having bonded the bottoms back together.

Here in 2022. I question the method of reusing the same location on the horizontal bar, re-gluing in those same spots when there is already glue residue from the previous tests. But overall, it's still a good test. I have ShooGoo, & Gorilla Glue (white translucent version). A few years ago, I bought Gorilla because of the television commercials. So when I used it to rebond a metal stick inside its hole on a wooden handle (for a handheld kitchen sieve/strainer), I thought it would hold, but eventually it broke out again a year later. I noticed the cured Gorilla residue inside the hole & around the stick was spongey. Anyway, some time later, I repaired the strainer again, but this time with JB Weld. And this is JB Weld that was probably 30 years ago. Both JB paste tubes still had good glue in them, they did not seem to set/cure inside their tubes over the decades. I used that for the strainer & since then, a year ago, that strainer is still good & strong. To be fair, I did drill the hole about an inch deeper. It might have shortened the strainer length a bit, but I think putting it an inch deeper helped add more JB glue inside. In summary, I think Gorilla works, but to only a smaller degree & that commercials & hype is why it seems to be selling, despite it's relative inferiority against other adhesives, as both witnessed in the video & in my experience given. I have used Gorilla on other repairs, but in those repairs, the pieces are not on moving parts, so the Gorilla holds ok. I have used ShooGoo to re-glue bottoms of soles on some sneakers & that seems to be holding up & that was done years ago, probably 2016, 2017 or so.

Years ago I called the manufacturer of Shoe Goo and the person I spoke to indicated that it was basically E6000. I don't know if that's still the case or even if the person was correct but they certainly performed very similarly in these tests.

[@Romans--bo7br]

Ed LeDoux..... They're Both manufactured by the same company, but they are NOT made with the same formulation. You can certainly use them both for shoe repairs, but of the two... the E6000 is much more suitable for everyday, outdoor heavy duty use, like for work boots. The E6000 when fully cured (24 - 48 hrs, depending on temp. & humidity levels), has a tensile strength of 3200 psi, nearly double that of their Shoe Goo adhesive, and is also UV proof and highly abrasion resistant as well. While the E6000 is flexible when Fully cured, it has a Duro rating (hardness) equal to 80 in rubber form, which is quite stiff, compared to the Shoe Goo. The E6000 is formulated Primarily with High-Grade Polyurethane and is therefore NOT water-soluble, so it can be used in wet conditions and other harsh environments. Shoe Goo is comprised Primarily of Styrene-butadiene, Toluene, and Naphtha (solvent), and is also water-proof, and has an approximate hardness of Duro 40.... so is quite flexible And, bendable.. making it a bit more suitable for light duty, casual type "softer" shoes and "sneakers", etc.

Additional win credits to Shoe Goo and E6000 which had apparently longer lever moments due to eye hooks extending farther out of the end of the test rods, making the force at the glue joint greater than the shorter test rods for AG & Gorilla.

[@DelmarBD]

Great test. Thank you. I guess the surface it is gluing onto is another consideration.

[@Indianny]

I used gorilla glue the glue my sole back onto my shoe. I work 10 hours a day I'm walking on my feet all day long so my shoes get a lot of wear. Gorilla glue only lasted about three or four days. Gorilla glue has good marketing but I found it to be not so good ( in certain applications anyways ) Thank you for testing these really helpful video

[@ExocagedRC]

Truth right there.

[@judepicton6252]

Thankyiu ,I was just going to purchase gorilla glue. I'm needing to glue fabric embroidery to a wooden box, everytime I Google the result is gorilla glue . I can't mess up ,it's got to be a good fix ,I'm thinking the E 6000 is the one to try.

[@gerardofollano8417]

Each glue is made for different applications, the E6000 is excellent on flexible materials like fabric, vinyl, rubber, plastic, leather.

[@Cosmic_Soul]

Thanks for this googoo gaga test single handedly, great work ❤ Helped me a lot in selecting which product to use. Staying away from 🦍

[@MsSafe4U]

This was excellent information. It took me an hour before finding this information to begin my new project. Thank you so much!

[@greenie43]

Ya, but, bed liner works so much better and it comes in colors also!! 😎👌

[@ogesignature]

This is so helpful... I've been contemplating on E6000. I have to go for it..💃💃💃💃

[@D4ni3lS4nk3]

very good video, the only one in YT that compares in fair scenarios this 4 glues

[@ExocagedRC]

Thank you

[@KevinNeustadter]

Gorilla Glue needs surfaces to be wet before you apply the glue. Water kind of acts as a catalyst

[@KevinNeustadter]

I just used the Clear Gorilla Glue (non expanding/non foaming) this week to glue the top sheet of my ski back. Luckily, the top sheet was still attached to the tip, so I took a spray bottle of water and sprayed the two surfaces to be glued and poured a bit of the glue between the top sheet and the ski and with nitrile gloves, I smeared the glue all around to cover the surfaces as close to 100% as I could. Then covered the top and bottom of the ski with cling wrap (to keep glue from getting on my garage floor) and took a wooden dowel and rolled the glue around like a rolling pin to get the rest of the surfaces my fingers couldn't reach. I Then took a 50 pound sandbag and placed it on the ski tip over the glued area and put 2 cinder blocks on that (had to angle the ski a little to position the cinder blocks/sand so that they were pushing directly over the affected area). I let it dry for 3 days then took cinder blocks/sand off and ripped the plastic wrap off and used a utility knife to cut off the excess glue that smeared out. Letting the ski dry another 2 days inside where temps and humidity are normal. I did see where I used a tiny bit too much, but I think the glue will hold well for my application.

Was just in Walmart looking for shoo goo and saw the e6000. Did a Google search and found this video. Shoo goo for me!!!! Bash proofing a new body.

[@davidlykins8937]

You might also want to try Quick Grip by Beacon Adhesives. Also a quick drying and flexible glue. I flew Indoor foamies for a few years up north, BEST glue to do a quick repair on EPP foam, and there's also a bunch of other uses.

[@StRaPz_atkRj]

I know what Glue I'm using. Im building the Moebius models international prostar right now but didn't know what Glue to use but thanks to you for the video E6000 wins!!!!!!!

[@teresawolf6247]

Me too!! I'm gluing glass together to make a birdbath.

[@VTheVoiceOfficial]

How did it work out??

[@concernedpatriot.2221]

Great comparison video, extremely helpful. Made up my mind to buy the shoe goo. Thank you for sharing.

[@kenanmammadov7281]

i am so glad i bought e600 a few days ago before watching this

[@StefanKaizur]

i just used amazing goop to glue my firestorms to my tributes. Its been holding up awesome. 2850kv on 4s and no problems.

[@calebgilpin5762]

One of the best comparison reviews iv seen. Great video. Thanks

[@N1NJAKIDD]

I really enjoyed that, thanks for putting in the effort for us to see how each glue performs over time.

[@RTmadnesstoo]

Good test. Thanks for investing 3-4 days .... so I didn't have too. The moral of the story is follow the destructions and wait 24 hours. Thanks again

[@ExocagedRC]

The time it took for this one was a bit long for sure

[@RCRoads]

Nice test setup. I was looking for the best glue to reenforce RC bodies. I tried some old PVC glue over meshed drywall tape and it made a cool pattern as the glue melted into the plastic. I would love to know what the best goo to use. Great video and work putting it together. 👍👍

[@Will-bo7kg]

This was a very informative video and I like your experiment setup for it as it seemed as fair as possible.

[@ExocagedRC]

Thank you!

[@staple132]

Wish there was a bend test, I usually use these glues on sneakers. Shoo goo failed me when I used it on the sides where your foot bends. Might try e6000 this time..

[@aallpp55]

Hi, did it work well using E6000?

[@jaymorris3468]

Except for the tape the gorilla products for me have always been a let down, goes to show, good marketing does its job.

[@jerrywatson1958]

Dude, I got to thank you for all these videos! It has really helped me keep cool during this crisis. I have fixed my TRX4 and have been driving every other day. I submarined it yesterday. Got to relube everything today. My servo started acting up, but both batteries were drained so I see later today if it is something more. Love the glue topic I have some gorilla glue at the moment. I started typing this before the video ended so. Really thanks.

[@ExocagedRC]

awesome man, glad I can help.

[@jonathanmcmahon2214]

Open that servo up. All your "waterproof" servos are really closer to splash resistant. A tiny bit of moisture on that circuit board can make them act goofy. While it's open (after it dries out) coat the board in dielectric grease. That will make it much more waterproof.

[@jerrywatson1958]

@@jonathanmcmahon2214 I am all out of dielectric grease. Will marine grease be ok?

[@jonathanmcmahon2214]

I wouldn't use a petroleum product. Might cause corrosion. But, I don't really know.

I love how you just started throwing in wild stuff for weights

[@tryingcake101]

Thank you! jhust tred shoe Goo for the first time to repair a shoe heel (women's heel tap). Seriously, just 1 hour ago. So, I have t o wait and see how long it will last in this Florida humidity. I'm going to let it sit a couple of days wit the vice grip on it before trying it out. E6000 never lasted more than a week or two when repairing shoes here in SWFL.

[@meboyotube]

I really thought it was going to be E6000 then Shoe Goo. Those are my favorites. I wonder which of the two is sightly flexible as well as strong. Aka straight sheer strength (as seen in the video) vs a part that bends like a shoe sole.

[@Steve_Just_Steve]

probably would have if he had waited full cure time.

[@kotymccallister5150]

E6000 is flexible. I've had the sole coming off a pair of vans (not like the foxing detaching from the sole, but the whole midsole/outsole separating from the upper) and E6000 held it on fairly well but was also still able to flex like normal

[@sheriwarnken8082]

Looking up E6000 and found this video. I was riveted! Couldn't stop watching, had to see who wins. I'm subscribing now. Smh

[@ExocagedRC]

Thank you I appreciate it. I'm past due to make another one of these videos with the new or updated formulas

[@Dustandfuzz]

Shoe Goo takes two to three days to be at maximum strength. It’s waterproof. Works on plastic, glass, very strong.

[@floygrace6559]

Well done. Enjoyable and informative. I will purchase the winner for my next project. Thanks.
