Foamie Glue?

[El Camino]

Hello everyone, what kind of glue/adhesive do you use to put foamies on with?? Thanks, and have a great tomorrow!!

I use a 2 part epoxy with 0 blow offs but I know a few have used superglue with good results, eventually it will blow off tho.

I use a flexible instant cement used to glue on RC car tyres. Still blows off every now and then, but i always keep a few foamies at hand. Also i've noticed that dry firing the marker causes way more foamies blown off than shooting with paint.

I've also used Superglue a time or two, usually with good results. Regardless of the glue/epoxy used, it's vital to clean the metal surface of the bolt head before re-attaching. I'll usually even touch it with sandpaper just a little (All you're really doing is removing the glue residue).

I just don't use them , i've never had adverse results

This is a pretty common question. I don't have any suggestions because I've never reattached a foamie. Mine blew off about a year ago and I've been playing without it since, no problem that I've noticed. There are a lot of people that have the same experience. So, don't worry if you can't get it reattached, you should be just fine playing without it.

Agree with the 2 above statements. Over rated.

Perhaps overrated but a lot of people like the feeling of security by having something cushion the ball as it is struck. It's no different than people getting a Level 10 or installing eyes to accompliush the same goal...

Superglue does work for a while but eventually gives way. I've used 2 part epoxy with great results and that actually lasts longer than superglue [in my experience].

That gell super glue works best for me, has to be the thick stuff.

I just got some J-B weld.
Hopefully it holds up

I don't get it?

Lol I was wondering why he was laughing to...

edit- my guess is he thought you meant you welded the foamie to your bolt, which would in fact be pretty funny

Dude.

Seriously, that's completely beyond overkill. Good luck removing it without destroying the bolt when your fomie come off.

Blowtorch, chisel and hammer FTW.

That's what I was hoping for.
Just did some rapid firing with no balls, foamie isn't going anywhere.
