  • In this video, I showed you how to fix your broken items using glue and baking soda, known as super glue or ca glue. Using baking soda and super glue together is a much more effective and durable method than repairing using cotton and super glue.

    Things to note: Small amount of powder, small amount of glue, let it set and LET IT COOL, then add a small mount of baking soda, small amount of glue.
    This is a highly exothermic reaction. In large quantities it can get hot enough to melt or possibly ignite the material being repaired.
    The reaction between the bicarbonate (baking soda) and the cyanoacrylate (superglue) forms polymers, or chains of atoms, which is why the resulting solid is stronger than just superglue alone.
    These polymers can become brittle below freezing temperatures. Keep that in mind if your repair will be exposed to severe cold.
    A good way to add your powder is to put it into a salt shaker, This helps you add small amounts at a time and breaks up the lumps into a finer powder for a neater finish.

    I did this trick when working on a craft project. Things to note: first, the glue dries almost immediately when mixed with the baking soda, so you have to work fast, and second, it is very hard to get a smooth surface. You will have to heavily sand, to the point of using a Dremel tool, go get it close to smooth.

      All it does is speed up drying and it actually makes the end result considerably weaker than just super glue on its own. If you want a more durable base for your models mix sand with super glue, it is a lot stronger. Baking soda is only used to speed up hardening, nothing else.

    Wear safety glasses when using super glue. It's no fun to get super glue in your eye.
    I was using a thin tube to apply super glue. I had the work close to my face in order to accurately place the glue. As I squeezed the bottle, the small tube popped out and the glue went into my eye. The thin tube was curved in a way which caused the tip of the glue bottle to point at my eye.
    Another time I had a brand new bottle of super glue. When I attempted to cut the tip of the applicator open, the super glue shot out of the tip into my eye. The glue had been packaged at lower altitude than where I live so the bottle was pressurized.
    Both times I managed to pry my eye open and flushed my eye with water for as long as I could stand it. I didn't have any permanent damage to my eyes but I now make sure to always were safety glasses when using super glue.

      I've discovered that super glue needs a bit of moisture to set properly. Often the plastic frames on my cheap reading glasses break and shrink. I tried super gluing them to the plastic lenses and they always broke again. Now I wash and rinse the glasses first which leaves enough moisture in the frame groove to "set" the super glue. So far this holds much better. The Krazyglue hard hat commercial didn't seem to add moisture or water to the test. Before my discovery of the moisture trick I found super glue to be weak and unreliable, and often resorted to epoxy. It has always seemed to work well when gluing your fingers together!
      There is a commercial plastic repair product that consists of a tube of super glue and an amount of black and white powder. On-line critiques were that it was just baking soda.
      I wonder if there is any relevant chemical reaction between the super glue and the added powders, or if they are just aggregate like the sand and rocks in concrete, or the sawdust with wood glue?

    I use it for so many repairs now, works great for so many different surfaces. A Dremel is useful for smoothing out sharp edges, getting even surfaces, buffing for a shine AND for sanding off accidental glue globs 😬.
    When repairing ceramics, if a crack will be large & noticable, I'll add the base pigment (of whatever it is I'm repairing) in powder form to the baking soda so that after it dries, all I have to do, if anything, is paint any small details with acrylics.
    *As a note, if you plan on using pigment, you'll likely need to double the pigment to offset the white soda. And always test your pigment/soda ratio for the right shade BEFORE applying superglue!
    All in all, in using this stuff & learning different tricks, I've got to point where even I have trouble finding where the repair was made!
