E6000 user? Watch This! Testing Glass Bails but Shocked by the GLUE results!

[@jenieyolland2852]

Thanks so much for doing this video Jamaison. I love this Gorilla Glue it has been my standard glue for years now and have found it to remain reliable over time as well. Cheers!

[@unclemartin6368]

Oh gosh, I’m glad you did this test! I have never been happy with the E6000 glue. I bought some gorilla glue after watching your videos, but I haven’t tried it yet. This test gives me the confidence I needed!

[@shhhon]

Same

[@mysticalwonderland8479]

I think E6000 has changed. I used it for my bails on glass with texture and let it cure 24 hours they all snap right off with minimal force. I guess I’ll try that gorilla glue because oily super glue did even worse! I’ve never heard of glass bails, that’s fantastic no matching problems with metal findings !

[@JamaisonSchuler]

And the glass bail allows for you to use transparent glass for pendants and not see that ugly metal bail. 😉

[@mysticalwonderland8479]

@@JamaisonSchuler great point, I will be ordering some soon!!

[@timadamsglass]

The numbers don’t lie! Thank you for doing this!

[@janasyring]

what a great test!!! thanks Jamaison!

[@donnamerlino1660]

I had been using E6000 for years. I started having failures about 2 yrs ago so I switched to drilling but that process is time consuming, pinch bails can be difficult to find and costly if you want them to last and not tarnish. I ve been using Gorilla Glue for my garden stakes but not my pendants, so I guess maybe it’s time to use it for everything. I’m also going to buy some of your bails and try using them. Thanks so much for sharing your wealth of information. They are fun to watch and so informative.

[@JamaisonSchuler]

I think you might really like them!

[@stephencouitt3831]

Interesting results. Thanks Jamaison.

[@JamaisonSchuler]

I thought so too!

[@carmensparks6950]

I have used the Gorilla Glue (based on your recommendation) on some things but have been afraid to try it on some of the things I usually use two-part epoxy on. This has convinced me to use the Gorilla Glue on everything! Thank you so much for sharing!

[@JamaisonSchuler]

I use it exclusively now on everything. No issues yet!

[@smileymari1224]

Thank you for the wonderful experiment! It was so interesting!!

[@3PairDesigns]

Jamaison, who, but you would think of such a test? and it was brilliant! I too used to be a devotee for nearly a decade of E6000 but I started finding some of my earrings falling apart after several years. I started using Tabitha's Araldite 2 part epoxy and it works great, but for quicker and easier application I use your recommended Gorilla Glue and it is awesome! I have had NO failures. I even tested it on the handle of a pie cutter. The plastic handle slid onto the metal "stake" of the cutter and let me tell you, that thing is never going to budge, lol! Thank you so much for being so curious and entertaining. Seriously, I had faith in the Gorilla from the start, lol! 🦍😅

[@JamaisonSchuler]

Leave it to me to try something wacky!

[@TA-sv8kd]

I use the E6000 but after letting it dry 24hrs... I then put in the oven at 275 degrees for 30 minutes then shut off the oven to let it cool down. I have not had a problem with bails coming off. I like the Gorilla glue because I can eliminate the oven part. Thanks Jamaison! Your awesome! :-)

[@harcosparky]

I am now motivated to replicate this test in a way that would make my fellow engineers proud! Fixture mounted, no hand holding of the UUT or data collection device! In my way to buy some Gorilla glue and probably throw away what little E6000 I have left. How old was that tube of Gorilla Glue you used …. Looks like it’s been in use for a while?

[@JamaisonSchuler]

As I said in the video, it was a fresh tube I just opened. I realize my techniques aren’t very scientific but at least it’s directionally informative! 😂

[@FatheadH]

@@JamaisonSchuler I, too, had to show my engineer husband. He was very impressed. Love, love, love your vids!

[@virginiatravers9693]

and to add to my earlier comment, bails could also be great for pocket vases as well-just thought of that as you mentioned sun catchers....just ordered bails!!

[@sharonemslie6502]

Thanks for doing this! Great testing... I have not had any trouble with E6000 here in Canada but, I do let it cure 48 hours with no touching. But, I am willing to give the Gorilla Glue a try now after your results!! Thanks again!

[@kimmorgano8778]

This was impressive! Im so glad I bought a lot of these bails! I have both these glues. Im only going to use Gorilla now. I have had E600 fail on a couple of pendants.

[@JamaisonSchuler]

Thanks for the support

[@kristibbradshaw]

Good to know. Thank you.

[@JamaisonSchuler]

Glad it was helpful.

[@susandavis9986]

Thanks for the excellent test. I have been unhappy with e 6000 for some time but hate to use 2 part epoxy for jewelry. Very handy having it in your Amazon Store!

[@JamaisonSchuler]

Yes, why mess around with two-part epoxy if you don’t need to?

[@virginiatravers9693]

Excellent and useful information, thank you. I also am now thinking I can use your bails (and the gorilla glue) for some of my Christmas ornaments which might be considered on the heavy side but not even close to your test weight.

[@JamaisonSchuler]

Yes, I use them on my Christmas ornaments too!

[@FullMoonLoonDesigns]

Great test but I was so worried you were going to end up with that black glass breaking, and slicing your hand! Maybe wrap it in foam and place in a vice? Although it might be hard to put enough pressure on and not break the glass. Very cool experiment though!

[@JamaisonSchuler]

I wish I had a vise as I had the same thought! I’m satisfied with this testing… I don’t think I need to go any more! 😂

[@MarcFresko]

You don't need a voice, just something to pull against. ​@@JamaisonSchuler

[@mellisa9459]

Thank you for this test. Interesting, I believe that E6000 has changed their formula but they will never say.

[@JamaisonSchuler]

I wonder the same!

[@mellisa9459]

It’s just like Dawn dish soap, it’s just not as good as it used to be and I called them and they said that they didn’t change anything in it. Yeah ok.

[@brendaliles7040]

Great demo! Thank you!

[@JamaisonSchuler]

Thanks!

[@DannyP...]

That’s really cool! I wanna play with that force testing machine! Have a great day! Thanks for the video

[@JamaisonSchuler]

Thinking I could also use to weigh luggage? 😂

[@Happy_glass2]

Interesting! Thank you!

[@Marhagg]

Interesting test, thanks for sharing. Have ordered Gorilla glue from Amazon, strange that such a good glue is not available in stores here in Sweden🤔

[@Karin_A_023]

I can't find it in the Netherlands either...

[@terrygarner7656]

THANKS!

[@unionse7en]

good, useful data thanks for the effort

[@unionse7en]

i recently bought some of the e6000 "plus" only used it once, but seemed to skin over as soon as squeezed.... will have to test it more...mad it hard to apply to things.

[@JamaisonSchuler]

Interesting - I have not seen that kind!

[@kkarpinski1569]

Great experiment, thank you! One question - don't you think there is some variation in the strength of each glass bails since they are hand made?

[@JamaisonSchuler]

Definitely - I think I even mentioned this in the video? Some are thicker, some thinner. Tried to pick a good variety to test.

[@lindaclasson1088]

No more E6000; I switched to Gorilla glue when you mentioned it in another video. Do you know if it holds up outdoors for things like garden stakes? His Glassworks said not to use Hxtal outdoors (due to expansion/contraction) so I've been using silicone glue but am now wondering about the Gorilla glue

[@JamaisonSchuler]

This gorilla glue is essentially silicone? I’ve had an art panel I glued to a metal frame hanging on our Texas fence (in the full sun and harsh freezes) for two years now and it seems fine!

[@lindaclasson1088]

@@JamaisonSchuler Thanks, good to know!

[@donnamerlino1660]

I’ve been using the Gorilla for my garden stakes for 2 years with no problems! It’s great for outdoor pieces!

[@sunburstarts]

Hi Jamaison, Great video so thank you! Are you attaching the bail to the glass right after you apply the gorilla glue for pendants and are you applying the glue to both the bail and the glass before attaching or just one surface? Trying out gorilla glue after years of E6000. Thanks for any info. Just want to make sure my connections will be secure before I put some pieces together. One video I saw about gorilla glue mentioned wetting one side of the surface before attaching so looking for the best method for jewelry and the glass lidded jars. Thanks again!

[@JamaisonSchuler]

I attach immediately and to just one surface. I’ve never heard of wetting a surface, but of course, there are dozens of different Gorilla glue adhesives. I only use this specific clear construction adhesive shown in the video.

[@sunburstarts]

@@JamaisonSchuler Hi, Thank you for answering so quickly. Yes I am thinking I bought the wrong one. I will check yours out in your link. Have a great day.

[@sunburstarts]

I looked and I actually did buy the right kind but the video I watched about wetting one surface was confusing so never opened it. Thanks, Your videos are very informative.

[@JamaisonSchuler]

@@sunburstartsgood luck!

[@islandkatgranbyridgestudio]

While watching went looking for your Amazon store for Gorilla glue

[@Karin_A_023]

Thanks for testing. I f you ever want to test any other glue, would you be so kind to test the Araldine christal clear 2 part epoxy glue? (it was recommended by Tabitha and I wonder how it compares to Gorilla)

[@JamaisonSchuler]

I’ll keep this in mind but I have found a simple-to-use adhesive I love with no mixing and waste, so I’m not intending to continue exploring others…

[@gwenpetersen5452]

YES! Please test two part epoxy that needs to be cured and sit for I think 24 hours. I apply it after roughing both the acrylic tubing and my glass then clamp to both when I hang very large pieces (2+layers) on the wall and have never had a failure.

[@janicemanders2106]

Where can I get the tips for the Gorilla glue? Mine only came with the tube

[@JamaisonSchuler]

Hmmm… mine came with the tips so I’m not sure? Honestly, I never use them, but I lost the cap so I used the tip just to seal the tube. 😂

[@AnnetteRintelmann]

THAT WAS GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE GORILLA GLUE ALSO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@shhhon]

lol don’t come at me if you use inferior glue. I am sold. Buying gorilla glue. You should offer to rep them lol
