Araldite - 'new improved'.

(1/3) > >>

Orcade-Ian:
Am I missing something?
I have been using Araldite since I was an apprentice in the Aircraft industry in the 1960's.  In those days it was in 2 separate tubes and equal amounts were used - simple!  Then a new system was introduced to dispense the two parts equally, which took out any possibility of error - a great improvement.  Unfortunately, this system has been 'improved' yet again with 2 only nozzles with mixing chambers, which are then left full of unused and unusable product.  Am I missing something, or am I now expected to use the whole package with only 2 applications?  I have always just dispensed the required amount for the job.  Perhaps they are following the Colman's Mustard model who made their fortune, not from what people consumed but what was always left at the edge of the plate!!

Yes,

Effectively they become single use  dispenser

Massively increasing the cost to the user

Possibly try other epoxy products with better application

I think Gorilla works OK

What was wrong with two sperate tubes? BH!

kent400:
JB weld is still in two tubes but there seems only a few who stock that now. However can be found 'online'

Bryanj:
What about the rabid version?
