Best glue for glass repairs?

I need to repair a glass figurine. Can anyone recommend a good glue?

Hi @DIY_rookie,

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is fantastic to have you with us.

 

I'd suggest using this Loctite Glass Adhesive , which was formulated specifically for gluing glass to glass.

 

Let me know what you think.

Thank you for your advice and for the warm welcome. 

I’ll try this product and will let you know

I forgot to report that purchasing and using the recommended glue was a huge success. I managed to repair the figurine, and it’s back on the shelf safe and sound. 

My only advice would be to wear some sort of gloves while applying the glue. I had the skin on my fingers damaged because of the contact with the glue. 

Excellent product otherwise. Thank you again for your advice

Hi @DIY_rookie,

 

I'm glad to hear it was a success.

 

Using a pair of nitrile gloves or applying the glue with a craft brush would certainly be a good idea for this type of repair.

 

Thank you for sharing your experiences and your words of caution.
