pofoke Posted December 5, 2016 Report Share Posted December 5, 2016 I'm starting to gather the items required for my first build and went to buy the E6000 adhesive. Why are there so many different types? Is there a recommended version (medium/high viscosity, fabri-fuse, craft, regular.....)?

There are certain online sellers (including Europe) that are selling FAKE E-6000. The genuine product is clearly marked Made in the USA, and has a batch number on each tube. They do not sell to distributors in China or Hong Kong, so if you order from a seller there, it is probably not the real stuff. If you have any doubts, you can contact the manufacturer at www.eclecticproducts.com, and they will let you know where to get it. The fake stuff is garbage. If you live in the U.S., the best places to go are Michael's or a reputable craft store.

Memory[501st] Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 (edited) ok "Made in the USA" and batch number - CHECK! Phew!!! I´m close to starting to use E6000 for the first time (TIE Bucket for now) and I´m contemplating where I do it because of the fumes. I´ve read a lot about open garages and the like but I do see "living room table" builds, too. Can I use it in my office (maybe with a tilted window), would the living room with 2 windows open wide be better or will I have to use the space of my parents´company with a room, a hall that opens wide, has some parts covered by a lil roof and an open parking space? I do have a mouthcover, too which I could use plus I´ll make sure my cats will not be in the room when glueing... I´ve put waaaay too little thought into this point up till now Edited January 13, 2017 by Memory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people won't go near the stuff without a full face respirator with special organic fume filters. Others will only work outdoors. Others work by a window with a fan on. Personally, I work in a large room in an open floorplan house. I'm generally only doing one or two pieces at a time, in the evening, and then I left them cure for 24 hours while I'm in another area of the house, and overnight while I sleep. You can't smell anything by morning. I'm good with that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
