Cheap Lee Valley Starbond Dark Brown CA Glue

Developed for filling knots and small voids in most dark-colored woods, this cyanoacrylate glue dries in seconds to an opaque dark coffee brown to effectively disguise the repair in the surrounding wood. Alternatively, it is an excellent way to create distinctive accents in lighter colored woods by highlighting imperfections while stabilizing the material. It also works well for bonding dark-colored woods.

With a medium-thick viscosity (500 cPs) similar to the consistency of syrup, it penetrates voids up to 0.008″ wide and bonds in 30 to 40 seconds. Curing time is longer when filling voids than when the glue is used as an adhesive due to the increased volume of glue applied to a void. For filling voids, building layers of glue alternating with accelerator is recommended to ensure full curing.

The glue comes with two applicator caps, a clog-resistant stopper, and eight precision microtips that fit over the dispensing nozzle to permit extremely accurate glue application. The microtips can be cut to a desired opening width and are good for more than one application if soaked in acetone immediately after use.
