Default RE: Killer price on 2oz. bottles of CA

I bought several bottles of Hotstuff when I was in RC years ago.
Right after that, I quit the hobby.
Someone had told me that freezing the ca glues extended the shelf life, so I packaged the Hotstuff in sealed, air tight, plastic freezer bags and put then in the deep freeze. Well, out of sight is out of mind, and I forgot about the glue - that is until I started back in RC back in June of this year. It had been in the freezer, with trips from one freezer to another, for about 20 years.

Anyway I got out a bottle of the thicker stuff (Super T), let it come up to room temperature, and it is as good now as it was then.
Fantastic stuff! And freezing it DID prolong the shelf life. At least for me.

The only problem I've seem with any of the ca glues is it getting thicker and thicker, on to the point of solidifying, when left out at room temperatures for extended periods of time.

Just my observations. Thought I'd pass them on. Maybe it will help someone else.


That OK ca glue looks like a good deal to me. I'll probably get a few bottles too.
Thanks for the heads up.
