You’re absolutely fabulous! I’ve been a female in construction for 16 years, but haven’t really worked much since adopting my last 3 foster babies a coupla years ago. I adore your videos and almost always come away either learning something or having the need to buy something for my shop. You have a way of teaching that doesn’t make anybody feel inferior, that’s incredibly priceless in this field. Thank you 😃
Lady, of ALL the videos on TH-cam showing "tests" on products. I TRUST YOURS THE MOST. No BS, NO Shilling and NO LIES. I LIKE THAT part of your videos. Be safe and have a great week.
Oh my goodness Leah that Q Bond review was amazing! Thank you so much! And thank you to the viewer who suggested you making that video. I think that you such a great job on your home improvement videos in your professional tips and tricks. I grew up watching Bob Vila, but your videos are far more informative, educational from a practical standpoint, and just downright Pleasant to watch. You are my new favorite DIY person on TH-cam! Thank you again so much. Warmest regards and God bless you and your effort, Joel
I used this over 15years ago. In Australia I know have to stop around. Saved my holden Commodore in a bad situation. Top stuff. Btw you can use on a hot repair as I did. Sealed a hot water leak especially when metal is hot. One layer because I burnt my hands. Ridiculous awkward repair. But instant fix. 15years ago. Now impossible to get in Australia! I make my own with extremely fine metal filings. Top video!
You can do the same thing with any "super glue" and baking soda. I've even seen that used to make parts for small model cars, planes, trucks, etc. Once it hardens (in seconds), it can be drilled, sanded, filed, painted--whatever you can to do plastic or metal. I've used it to repair broken laptop cases, to fill holes in wood (correcting mistakes), and many other things. Q-bond is simply a super glue with some colored powders. Since there two types of powder recommended for different materials, I would assume there is some advantage over plain old baking soda, but that does work well for the things I've mentioned.
As someone who's used Q-Bond a lot, it *is* basically krazy glue/super glue, but it's formulated for super low viscosity and much faster curing time--at the expense of making it a little bit trickier to use. Other brands of cyanoacrylate adhesive tend to have something added to make them a little more viscous, which makes them easier to use but also seems to slow down the hardening time. Plus, sometimes you *want* it to flow really easily so it'll get into cracks.
Love ya! I bought Q Bond a while back, forgot I had it. When I moved I rediscovered it, and revisited this video to understand how to use it. Many thanks.
Thx for that...I live in the country and good to know I don’t always have to drive in to town to fix some things! I watch your vids before bed...one because the cadence of your voice so soothing and it fixes a new idea in my head
Thank you for sharing all of your knowledge in such an easy to understand fashion. There is nothing worse than being more confused AFTER someone's explanation!
Thanks Leah for all your informative and instructional videos. Your variety of topics and approach is great for not only the basics but also learning new tips and tricks at times.
Thank you for this video, I originally saw this used to repair a car door mirror and couldn't believe how well it worked! The internal mounting for my mirror was broken whilst parked and to my absolute horror was quoted £428 for a new mirror for a Skoda Citigo! This looks to be the best possible repair for injection moulded plastic parts and the powder reinforcement can fill shattered mountings, giving them sufficient strength to resume working!
One of Q-Bond's best features is also its biggest drawback: It hardens really fast, but before that it's REALLY thin and runny and likes to go everywhere. You've got to be super duper careful with it!
Leah, another great video. I'd never heard of Q bond (or of the super glue and baking soda trick mentioned by others). I agree that Super Glue is not as super as it used to be, so I'll give the Q bond a try. Thanks so much for sharing this!
I sometimes use strips of paper towel soaked with super glue to reinforce super glue repairs on plastic parts (fridge shelf, car mirror, little backpack strap brackets, etc). I'll glue the main piece and hold it until it sets, then cut an appropriate piece of paper towel and soak it with the CA glue, and lay it along the seam. If you reinforce both sides, it's usually stronger than the original. Gotta make sure the surfaces are very clean first, though. You can use a bit of cloth as well, but I don't always have a clean rag and paper towels are adequate for most things that don't see particularly heavy use.
I am a retired mechanic and welder.... I have and do use both Q-Bond and Crazy Glue with baking soda. IMHO, Q-Bond is better, but a close second is the CG+BS. The main reason I like CG+BS is that using only CG, you have to hold the piece in place for (F&_ing)ever.
So I cracked my aluminum housing to my oil filter on my Mercedes. For the last week I have been using JB Weld and E6000 To seal the crack it worked on one side of a crack but the other side of the crack kept spewing oil out every time I start the car. I am definitely going to get the stuff if tomorrow oil is still leaking. Thank your for the video
Bmw timing chain guides got broken in two... Went to a parts for a new ones and they told me a crazy prize. Put a Q-Bond on it and the rest is history. It works well on aluminum, plastic and inside the engine. Remarkable I say. Even Q-Bond gasket solution is much quality stand Victoria Reinz and all fancy brands
I've been disappointed in the currently available super glues. They don't even seem to stick my fingers like they used to. I look forward to trying this on plastics in the future.
you tested once with q bond the liquid is just superglue and any liquid super glue works with the powders ive fixed a hole in a intake with the stuff n the repair outlasted the truck
It's just super glue, I wouldn't expect it to work on a cloth reinforced belt. I've seen the super glue/baking soda trick and this looks like exactly the same thing. Another twist I've seen is superglue/powdered-graphite version, which appears to be even stronger yet. You need to be a little neater with what you do, after putting some powder in the hole, why not level it off instead of leaving the mound, and then being sure you saturate it better? Would be curious to see how well that bond in that hole worked if hammered on or something.
What is you glue edge to edge on metal? You only filled the hole on the metal bar that is not really something that is critical. If I have a circular ring that is with a half inch height and it split into 3 pieces and I want to glue it back into a circle. Will this work?
I was expecting a total fail as things have gotten crappy over the years like drain cleaners (Red Devil where are you!) Super glues have lost their punch and I haven't attached my helmet to a steal beam in 20 years. That rubber trick you just did, blew my freakin mind man. My MIND.
I love super glue or Cyano Acrylate (CA) to give its generic name. As you pointed out it can work well but does have its limitations. I think you should have mentioned one important thing, how to remove CA, especially when you have glued your fingers together, that is that Acetone will remove CA (main ingredient in nail polish remover). Also relevant is that CA cures with exposure to moisture in the air. This is why you should store it in a dry place, I use zip lock bags and also add silica bags to keep moisture out. One last tip, you can hold parts together with tape and let CA wick into join ( using “thin” CA). If you want to be adventurous, hobby shops sell CA not only in different viscosities but also contains different additives like rubber for flexibility and carbon for extra strength. Keep up the great work, I am new to your channel and have become a fan of your work.
Some else said that baking powder works just as well with thin CA, and you've mentioned some CA's can have carbon added for strength and it got me thinking about Q bond and their grey and black filler powder, would I be right in thinking they add different amounts of carbon powder to baking soda for their product with the grey having more carbon powder to be used on metal?
If you get CA adhesive in your eye, go to the hospital. DO NOT PUT ACETONE IN YOUR EYE!!! CA will not damage your eye permanently, Acetone WILL. It causes nearly instant and permanent clouding of the cornea (basically a cataract). Krazy Glue has a whole webpage about getting it in your eye.
Hello Leiah (sorry if I misspelled your name) I have bought a kit, but for some reason it doesn't seem to work that well, I bought it mainly for plastic headphones, but I tried it also to stick steel nails together, and some other stuff, but I never was able to get a bond that can't be easily broken by hand.
Hey Leah can you use this on porch paneling that has pulled away in certain spots or, what would be good to use to reglue some pieces that have pulled away. Thank you
Thank you Leah for the review just ordered some you can get it here in UK too from Amazon UK from 3rd party sellers. I never find superglue and epoxy all that good for many things I used apart from gluing my fingers with superglue. Epoxy I used doesn't appear to last and also isnt very transparent when set
Hi Leah, I've found this for sale on ebay UK....going to try it! Oh n you've got another watcher...my 17yr old son...he's started going through your vids....(I better lock my tools away!)
Hi Leah, I am planning to do the mirror frame for the bathroom, what kind of adhesive should I use? Is there any kind of double-sided tape that would be holding up instead of construction glue.
I found a similar adhesive on Amazon. One was super thin for close fitting parts and one medium for gap filling. I had a plastic fitting break on my car so initially bonded it with the medium then carefully packed baking soda around the joint to create a fillet reinforcement and dropped the super thin on that. It has to be strong enough to slip a rubber hose on it plus some vibration but this process made the repair stronger than the parent material. You have to use the thin adhesive for it to saturate the baking soda but it also cures instantly - even gets a little warm! Looked like your v belt may have been more porous and a little misaligned. Maybe another try would get it
I'm curious if you've ever considered bringing on a video production specialist? I'm in the business. I love your content, by the way. You have my favorite sign off of all the TH-cam makers. Actually gets me off my butt and on to working on projects!
If you're interested, we could do one pro bono just to see how it affects viewership. I'm fairly local, so it wouldn't be too much trouble on my end. No rush. I'm just looking for a change in the general nature of the work I do currently.
Would this fix a broken plastic turn signal? Can you upload pictures on here? it’s kind of hard to get where I need to repair because there’s a round plastic piece on the turn signal and the break is right before it, so the round piece is kind of in the way. I can upload a picture of where I’m talking about. It’s on a 2017 Hyundai Electra and the turn signal has a cone shaped piece right before the break
I have a inside driver's side broken door car handle. I want try this stuff do I have to clean my handle first before putting the glue on, if so what with? I don't think gluing will be enough though, I think I will have to brace behind it with a similar piece of study plastic. I would like to use the powder with the brace, I'll have to experiment first on some junk. The garage broke my handle and won't fix it and I don't want to pay $160. so I thought I might try this, looks cool! It might be a little difficult because my handle will be in a normal position I'll have to sprinkle the powder on the extra piece and stick it on fast. I watched several videos and didn't hear if pieces should be cleaned. It's a 2003 ford expedition. Can I use this stuff on my radiator supports...lol! $2000-$4000 I'm crying... Thanks for any answers, Gretchen
There are several products on the market that do a good job of repairing metal. And no, I wouldn't trust any of them like a weld. Knowing what end result you want can allow some flexibility in your repairs. If you aren't a welder and would need to hire one this product could make really good sense in SOME applications.
That last belt didn't look like a good connection. Maybe try to slice off the frays/curves (only enough to flatten it, without changing the overall belt length) and then hold pressure while it's setting up to make sure it's physically interfaced across the entire cut. You could also do a comparison between super glue + baking soda as other commenters suggested.
I have used Q-bond in several situations where it was very effective but finely moved to a similar product, Tech-Bond from tbbonding.com with excellent results. They use the superglue with ad activator and usually an application of heat. Also excellent videos for gluing different products, some which Q-bond will not glue. When I havefollowed their directions I have never had a failure.
@@seejanedrill I'm going to look into getting that stuff, it interested me. I didn't know if you knew that trick. I wanna say that your videos are very encouraging and your tricks are very useful and you explain things very well. You are very smart and talented. Love watching!
Thanks Leah, for your after coffee , taste some Pepsi just to calm the taste buds or Snapple: green tea or grape It works for me. On the glue bond thing i saw a utbe video were the person uses some baking soda with the glue used and it bonds very solid. When i find it i txt it to you. Edgar from Brooklyn n.y😉😘
Yoou should try Weldbond for woodworking.It is from Canada - I am Canadian and never used it - and was put onto it by Steve Ramsey - WWMM - It is excellent for products that you have put finish on - easier to finish while apart - And I am now a big fan
Proudly South African product, so glad to see our innovators getting their products out there.
You’re absolutely fabulous! I’ve been a female in construction for 16 years, but haven’t really worked much since adopting my last 3 foster babies a coupla years ago.

Perfect! This is JUST the test I was looking for, real life tests, not from the people who made it, THANK YOU LEAH!
South African here, and this stuff is awesome! 👌😎
Thx for that...I live in the country and good to know I don’t always have to drive in to town to fix some things!
I watch your vids before bed...one because the cadence of your voice so soothing and it fixes a new idea in my head
I've used this stuff. It works well on certain things . Not all . The good thing about it is that it's super quick
One of the nicest review videos. Just seem very sincere and nice and not wafty.
Thank you for sharing all of your knowledge in such an easy to understand fashion. There is nothing worse than being more confused AFTER someone's explanation!
Thanks Leah for all your informative and instructional videos. Your variety of topics and approach is great for not only the basics but also learning new tips and tricks at times.
you're welcome, Andrew, and thanks for watching!
First time ever watching one of of your videos and I just want to say I love your video style! Very informative and well done. Keep up the good work!
holy CRAP to that vac belt bond!!! I need to buy this stuff. Thanks again, Leah :D
you're very welcome!

Will give it a try....I appreciate your candor with the video. Been a long-time subscriber.
Nice ! And it’s really nice to hear you excited about something. Great way to start the day! Thanks

Leah is No 1 trainer, absolutely, like you doing by yourself after watching her demo.
i've heard that crazy glue with baking soda works in the same, i'd like you to try it , they say it bonds like a rock too
I am a retired mechanic and welder.... I have and do use both Q-Bond and Crazy Glue with baking soda. IMHO, Q-Bond is better, but a close second is the CG+BS. The main reason I like CG+BS is that using only CG, you have to hold the piece in place for (F&_ing)ever.

Your review is very impressive ma'am. Such a great product, thanks to you. SUBSCRIBED!
Bmw timing chain guides got broken in two... Went to a parts for a new ones and they told me a crazy prize. Put a Q-Bond on it and the rest is history. It works well on aluminum, plastic and inside the engine. Remarkable I say. Even Q-Bond gasket solution is much quality stand Victoria Reinz and all fancy brands
You should have put q bond powder on one end of the belt before gluing and seen the results then
never heard of Q-Bond before, i once used super glue and baking soda and did the trick, but next time a get a chance i will get Q-Bond, thanks Leah!
I've seen similar (with the power) done with baking soda & super glue. Excellent video. You have a new subscriber. 🏹🤠👍
A few drops of super glue (Cyanoacrylate) and baking soda will also get rock hard with in seconds.
yep
You beat me to it!
I'd love to see the two compared
Really ? Wow ..great ta know
I've been disappointed in the currently available super glues. They don't even seem to stick my fingers like they used to. I look forward to trying this on plastics in the future.
I agree. They have been a major letdown in most everything other than very low stress repairs.
you tested once with q bond the liquid is just superglue and any liquid super glue works with the powders ive fixed a hole in a intake with the stuff n the repair outlasted the truck
Good item to have, you never when something breaks. thank you.
That was pretty interesting. Thanks for testing that out for us, Leah.
Thanks, Leah! I assume that V-belt is too porous as opposed to the rubber vacumecleaner belt. But will definitely keep Q-Bond in my 4x4.
Yes
It's just super glue, I wouldn't expect it to work on a cloth reinforced belt. I've seen the super glue/baking soda trick and this looks like exactly the same thing. Another twist I've seen is superglue/powdered-graphite version, which appears to be even stronger yet.

What is you glue edge to edge on metal? You only filled the hole on the metal bar that is not really something that is critical. If I have a circular ring that is with a half inch height and it split into 3 pieces and I want to glue it back into a circle. Will this work?
Have you tried nex bond? It is a fast working wood glue. I've glued a board in under a minute.
Neva heard of this stuff ..but will be hitting the buy option on your Amazon link
I was impressed as well. Especially the rubber belt. the v-belt a mix of matierals/fibers? I will consider adding this Qbond to the glue arsenal.
I use a putty that just needs a couple minutes of kneading. I have curtain rods that have been up for 15 yrs. Less mess w/a more guaranteed result.
This seems awesome! 😎 I will have to try it out myself. Thanks
I was expecting a total fail as things have gotten crappy over the years like drain cleaners (Red Devil where are you!) Super glues have lost their punch and I haven't attached my helmet to a steal beam in 20 years. That rubber trick you just did, blew my freakin mind man. My MIND.
Don’t you mean steel.
Grant Liddiard meant STOLEN
That steel repair was amazing!
goofyfoot2001 blew my mind too, I absolutely expected it to immediately fail. incredible.
I love super glue or Cyano Acrylate (CA) to give its generic name. As you pointed out it can work well but does have its limitations.
I think you should have mentioned one important thing, how to remove CA, especially when you have glued your fingers together, that is that Acetone will remove CA (main ingredient in nail polish remover).

Outstanding tool review, many, many thanks!
you're very welcome, TrikeRoadPoet!
Hello Leiah (sorry if I misspelled your name) I have bought a kit, but for some reason it doesn't seem to work that well, I bought it mainly for plastic headphones, but I tried it also to stick steel nails together, and some other stuff, but I never was able to get a bond that can't be easily broken by hand.
I am not certain that, that product is intended to fuse metal objects together, as much as it is intended to repair holes.
IS IT ABLE TO HOLD TWO PIECES OF METAL TOGETHER AND UNDER WHAT STRESS
I really enjoy seeing your videos. Great content, and helpful tips!
Hey Leah can you use this on porch paneling that has pulled away in certain spots or, what would be good to use to reglue some pieces that have pulled away. Thank you
Jip cant handle heat/steam. Fix my kettle. Not hold long. Then i use steelbond. Its months now i still hold.
Thank you Leah for the review just ordered some you can get it here in UK too from Amazon UK from 3rd party sellers. I never find superglue and epoxy all that good for many things I used apart from gluing my fingers with superglue. Epoxy I used doesn't appear to last and also isnt very transparent when set
Hi Leah, I've found this for sale on ebay UK....going to try it! Oh n you've got another watcher...my 17yr old son...he's started going through your vids....(I better lock my tools away!)
Hi Leah, I am planning to do the mirror frame for the bathroom, what kind of adhesive should I use? Is there any kind of double-sided tape that would be holding up instead of construction glue.
Thanks Leah! You’re the best!😘
I found a similar adhesive on Amazon. One was super thin for close fitting parts and one medium for gap filling. I had a plastic fitting break on my car so initially bonded it with the medium then carefully packed baking soda around the joint to create a fillet reinforcement and dropped the super thin on that. It has to be strong enough to slip a rubber hose on it plus some vibration but this process made the repair stronger than the parent material. You have to use the thin adhesive for it to saturate the baking soda but it also cures instantly - even gets a little warm! Looked like your v belt may have been more porous and a little misaligned. Maybe another try would get it
I gave it several tries with the same result
I'm curious if you've ever considered bringing on a video production specialist? I'm in the business.
I love your content, by the way. You have my favorite sign off of all the TH-cam makers. Actually gets me off my butt and on to working on projects!
We currently have a team of 3 and in the future if our budget allows we'd certainly be open to it.
If you're interested, we could do one pro bono just to see how it affects viewership. I'm fairly local, so it wouldn't be too much trouble on my end. No rush. I'm just looking for a change in the general nature of the work I do currently.
Excellent review! You test things like I do.
Hi Leah. Would you make a video about fixing a sliding wooden drawer whose walls are coming apart?
What is the wood joint?
Quite impressive, Leah! . I wonder how it would do with a broken bandsaw blade?
Nice one, Thank's Leah. Always watching ur videos and always give you my like,even if I don't write a comment but I always with you.
Thanks Felix
Yes! It's not just for dentures anymore!
Would this fix a broken plastic turn signal?
Can you upload pictures on here? it’s kind of hard to get where I need to repair because there’s a round plastic piece on the turn signal and the break is right before it, so the round piece is kind of in the way. I can upload a picture of where I’m talking about.
It’s on a 2017 Hyundai Electra and the turn signal has a cone shaped piece right before the break
I’ve been using Q bond for near 10 years now......here in the UK it’s a mechanics best friend
Nice!
Nice - i'll be looking forward to bonding my ring doorbell with this stuff
Thanks for your help
Ron from the UK
you're welcome, Ron, and thanks for watching!
What a great product. I'll have to seek it out.
That stuff on the vacuum belt was impressive!
yep
Excellent review, thank You very very much, God bless You plentifully!!!
I have a inside driver's side broken door car handle. I want try this stuff do I have to clean my handle first before putting the glue on, if so what with?

Thanks for any answers, Gretchen
Omg that’s me! I use it all the time. It’s so strong!
Christian Arreola. Hey Chris, I always read the comments and your comment got my curiosity going. Thanks for the video recommendation.
seejanedrill thank you for featuring me and for all your videos!
Never even herd of this, thanks!
Does is work on fabrics? Like sails, nylon, leather?
Do you know if it would work on wood?
also, the v belt was reinforced with fabric. nothing can bond that small a surface.
Thank you for time and knowledge 👍
There are several products on the market that do a good job of repairing metal. And no, I wouldn't trust any of them like a weld. Knowing what end result you want can allow some flexibility in your repairs. If you aren't a welder and would need to hire one this product could make really good sense in SOME applications.
Do one on rubber to aluminum, very difficult-
Wow the vacuum belt fix was crazy
yes, I too was amazed at how awesome it was!
I looked at the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and it's nothing more than Superglue and colored baking soda.
That is what I thought.
Using scissors to open a package that is made to just rip open easily?
Ma’am, You recommend any product to joint broken nose pad from eyewear ?
Superglue
An excellent review Leah :)
That last belt didn't look like a good connection. Maybe try to slice off the frays/curves (only enough to flatten it, without changing the overall belt length) and then hold pressure while it's setting up to make sure it's physically interfaced across the entire cut. You could also do a comparison between super glue + baking soda as other commenters suggested.
Thanks for the great review!
Best Glue I ever used
You could have tried using some of the plastic powder on the belt
I have used Q-bond in several situations where it was very effective but finely moved to a similar product, Tech-Bond from tbbonding.com with excellent results. They use the superglue with ad activator and usually an application of heat. Also excellent videos for gluing different products, some which Q-bond will not glue. When I havefollowed their directions I have never had a failure.
Is it any different than crazy glue and baking powder?
Nope, same thing (I'd bet).
A very good product but unfortunately it is not perfect. Thank you once again for teaching us all these tools
should have put the powder on top of the machine belt where you glue it to add reinforcement
Excellent! Thank you very much
Super glue and baking soda. Give it a try Leah let me know what you think
Daniel Leopold Yeah, this stuff is similar.
@@seejanedrill I'm going to look into getting that stuff, it interested me. I didn't know if you knew that trick. I wanna say that your videos are very encouraging and your tricks are very useful and you explain things very well. You are very smart and talented. Love watching!
Use the powder outside the v belt, put Q Bond and pore some powder on It.
Thanks Leah, for your after
coffee , taste some Pepsi
just to calm the taste buds or
Snapple: green tea or grape
It works for me.
On the glue bond thing i saw a utbe video were the person uses some baking soda with the glue used and it bonds very solid.
When i find it i txt it to you.
Edgar from Brooklyn n.y😉😘
Edgar Araujo thanks Edgar
Should I give it a shake before bonding stuff??? Seems to work when you do it!
"This belt is broken"....We'll pretend that was the case....LOL
Yoou should try Weldbond for woodworking.It is from Canada - I am Canadian and never used it - and was put onto it by Steve Ramsey - WWMM - It is excellent for products that you have put finish on - easier to finish while apart - And I am now a big fan
