[QUOTE="blooey, post: 1033241, member: 12007"]Thanks for the explanation [USER=50]@say_it_slowly[/USER] - I had no idea cyanoacrylates (super glues) had the ability to degrade some ceramics over time - if you can remember where you heard that I'd be eager to read the reports, never too old to learn! I know it has no gap filling abilities and I only use it on tight intimate breaks or hairlines, but if mixed with baking soda a reasonable fill can be achieved. I've even seen successful large ceramic repairs (a missing section of a broken sink or bathtub) done with it, using crushed instant noodles/superglue as a base filler! :D I have had some issues trying to undo bad PVA repairs, especially on wood, but I found the best solvent for dried white glue is vinegar - it does take some time to soften and remove, but it will come off after a good soak.[/QUOTE]
