      I just watched this prior to a trip to home depot for a garden project. I have watched a good number of your tests recently as I prepare to do some work around the property and appreciate the way you test the products properties head to head and the use of graphs to show the results. It cuts through all the hype and gives us real results in an easy tounderstand way. One thing that I haven't seen and would like to would be a comparison of some of the products, especially the adhesives, when used on dissimilar mateials such as brick or concrete and wood, both face and end cut. Thanks, again!

      I agree with Vicky, below (or above depending on how the comments are sorted) but also, it would be good to see another test of the best and adding in Sikaflex. I’ve used a number of these, especially 3M 5200 and 4200 as well as Sika and all are really great. Also, I think a comparison of fast and slow cure versions of the same products would be interesting. I know 3M and Sika both have two cure speeds available for several of their products...

      @Si74l0rd 3 года назад +5

      The original Gorilla Glue is good at what it does, but it looks like they just bought up old formulations when they expanded their range.
      My take on it is always do your research and find the best tool for the job, or in this case the manufacturer that made their fortune in this specific marketplace (the F26 in particular seems to fit the bill here). Rather than being a brand junkie and exhibit slavish devotion to any one company. These days all businesses seek to diversify to protect themselves from market fluctuations and unplanned obsolescence of their key products. Which means that 90% of their product line is likely to have limited in house R&D, if any, and most likely they've just paid patent fees and copied someone else's design, or worse still, they've put their own branding on a third party product.
      An exception to this, especially within the adhesives sector is 3M, who have infinite money and R&D resources because companies and governments have been using their products for donkeys years, for everything from adhesives, tape and insulation to bespoke products used on vessels launched into space. They are the world leaders in all things sticky, but you pay a price premium for all that R&D and the companies monolithic infrastructure and overheads.
      Sometimes the smaller companies with greater specificity in a particular area are the best bet overall for cost vs performance. F26 is made by a company started in 1930, and while it may no longer be family owned, there's still a lot of experience in their sector making products that people in the industry actually use.
      As for Flex, at that price to performance ratio they need to go back to the drawing board and create a new formulation. Neither good wet or dry, on wood or plastic, and ridiculously priced to boot. They're taking the piss even more than Gorilla are!
      Certainly nothing to be proud of if you work for Flex. Do better yo! Or drop your prices to a more appropriate level for the performance at the very least.

      The only
      downside to 5200 is that thicker layers can take a fairly long time to cure, and it cures more slowly in dry conditions. Seems to need moist air for a good cure; and it's not all that good for gap-fulling applications. But man, it sure is tough!

    My most impressed experience with PL is with deco concrete wall blocks. 7 year old install removing the glued down cap stones from the block wall, the glue never failed, the Caps or block pulled away from each other taking the glue it was attached to like in the results with the wood you observed. But that's wood with grain and not compressed and fully cured stable concrete blocks. That was with the 3x, 8x never existed at the time.

    3M 5200 is the factory adhesive to hold the fitting the driveshaft goes through to the hull on Yamaha PWCs, and has been for decades, I'd say its proven the test of time. Likely many other OEMs are using it for other purposes also, I've had to replace those fittings, and let me tell you, its a job. The 5200 will tear the fiberglass before it releases, better to just grind it off to avoid damaging the hull.

      This brings up the subject of razors, razor knives, utility knives, and other supposedly extra-sharp cutting instruments such as exacto knives and their variants and variations. For what it's worth, my experience has been that in recent years the quality of Steel used for various razor knife blades, and or the honing process, has gone way down hill. Although I recently discovered and purchased several japanese-made olfa knives, with their own double honed blades, and those get the nod for the sharpest and toughest razor knives that I have in my toolbox, by far. And no, I don't work for them or own stock in the company. In the past I have never cared for razor knives or utility knives with snap off style blades because the thumb lever ratchets are too easy to hit by axe and have the blade push back in to the handle while you are working, but some of the olfa knives have a thumbwheel ratchet and the blade will not move in the slightest no matter how much pressure you put on it, you'll snap the blade first. Which also brings up the subject of best traditional style utility knife, which one's hold the blade the tightest, with minimal slap or play, and which one's hold the extended blade in place securely and resist accidental fingering of the lock mechanism causing the blade to retract. Also, which one is easiest to change blades on but still does well with the other tests.

    When you want to watch a non sense experiment you watch TylerTube. When you want to watch a legit extremely precise experiment you come here.

    I dont use any of the products you generally talk about in your videos but your comparison experiments are so entertaining!
