Does anyone know what kind of glue this is being used? I have seen it too! Is it used because it makes for quic assembly or because its cheap? Or both. Tnanks, Capt,n
It is in fact a hot melt glue. and it is used because of exactly the reason you state - quick and cheap.
But worse - it is sold (in their language) as a form of Epoxy (It is all to do with the translation - long story).
There are in fact some hot melt glues that are suitable for our purposes (and in some cases better than CA) but I would be pretty sure the ones being seen are not one of them.
