Gluing back emag jewels

[young7786]

Hey my emag jewels fell off, i was wondering what kind of glue i could use to glue it back on?

[Load SM5]

The super kind.:D

I wouldn't use glue, not strong enough. Either weld or solder it on, I'd suggest welding over soldering.

I prefer bonding at the nuclear level, fusing two atoms together is definatly stronger than any superlue...;)


or you could just use some small amounts of clear silicone caulk...

Go to your local auto parts store and pick up one of those kits for re-attaching rear view mirrors. That stuff is silly strong. Also its not too tough to remove if you ever need to.

What? GLUE?!?!

I say a real man would “McGyver” it! Chewing Gum! :D

I ordered some Custom Jewels from Frymark recently. When they came in, she had applied some 3M 2-sided tape to them... That worked fairly well for the time I used it.

Also, Black VCG has a link in his sig to some Adhesive for plastics and rubber. He uses it to glue foamies back onto LX bolts, I thinki'd work for Emag jewels...

here ya go:

Step 1: Remove grip frame
Step 2: Place jewel into proper position
Step 3: Turn microwave to max heat and set for 10min
Step 4: Place grip frame into microwave and push 'start'
Step 5: Run!

LOL

Ahhhhh haha I like the post before mine



First get the goo that is already on there off with alcohol...not the drinking kind, the antiseptic.

Then I used a 3m double sided window film. Now one of my custmers gave me some information that he used.


He took the jewel with the 3m on it and used a hairdryer to "melt" them on, he said it worked great.

Which I assume would because the tape it heat shrink tape.

You could try that....I don't advise putting the frame in a microwave though....gahhhhh the thought.

I bet it would make all sorts of pretty colors ;)

Ah behold the wonders of two part epoxy. And the best part you can get it at the supermarket. You'll never have to worry about the jewel falling off again.
