Default SuperGlue & Plastic

[8D]Hi, When you use super glue on the screw's that go in to plastic, Example the plastic motor mount's. Can you still remove the screw's latter, if & when I upgrade to metal? [sm=confused.gif]

For the most part,that is a onetime shot.There is a good chance the threads will come out with the screw when removed.The few times a did it, i immediately ordered the part so it could be replaced the next time that screw was removed.Give it a try what do you have to lose

Purchase the proper loctite for plastics....every hobbyshop or automotive store has it...super glue isn't a good idea to use unless you plan on never removing the screw again.
