I LOVE Gorilla Glue Super Glue. I think it's the greatest super glue ever designed and would worship it if it had a church.

Does anyone know who makes GF9 Superglue? I've noticed it used the same bottle as the Gorilla Glue, so I am hopeful that it might be the same glue, or perhaps they both contract out to the same bottle company.

It is the best super glue ever made. It's all I will use, actually... Nothing better. What is this GF9 glue? Does it work better? I would be interested in trying it if it was.

Gorilla Super glue is awesome... and it has the added bonus of being available virtually anywhere!

For your question I would say no its not the same glue. The bottle can and is the same but the old GW came in same bottle so that doesn't prove anything. I would just stick with the Gorilla glue as like everyone and myself its the best. I am sure cheaper then the GF9 glue as well.

@SBG: GF9 is from the company Gale Force 9(GF9)....another kinda modeling company that sells pin vices and all other stuff as well.

What's so special about Gorilla Glue superglue?

I myself use Loctite Ultra Control Gel, which I like a lot but the tip tends to clog easily. So I'm open to replacements.

The loctite ultra control gel glue is amazing, especially for gluing down models to based bases as it doesnt run out onto the basing materials.

Gorilla Super Glue is so good because it will glue anything - plastic to plastic, resin to resin, metal to metal, or any combination of the above.

I'm not sure if it is just marketing hooplah or not, but it supposedly has some 'give' to it once it is dried. This means that if you drop a metal model you have glued with it the model wont explode into a dozen pieces. I have quit pinning since I got this stuff. I have put together Gnoblar Scrap Launchers with this stuff without pinning that are going on two years now and not a single piece has broken off.

I used to be an advocate of GW Glue (just because, I guess).. but I've noticed that I'm using my Gorilla Glue for most everything these days as most of the GW Glue I've got doesn't seem to work as well. Plus the thick plastic glue is a nightmare because of the stringy glueness it seems to leave everywhere!

The gorilla glue is shockingly tough. Which is great if you plan on leaving things together for a while... One of my buddies tried to change up the weapon arm on a Marine after a day or two, and in attempting to free the glue, pulled part of the torso off.

I had something similar happen when I removed a Deathspitter from a Warrior: the arm came apart at the shoulder and I had to grind out the socket. So, the glue holds very well, which is a blessing on one hand and sometimes a real pain!

My metal models, however (Tyrant, Deathleaper, Lictors, Raveners, etc), do not come apart. At all. In assembling, it takes only 10-15 seconds for the glue to set, then the pieces can be released to cure. It's pretty good stuff!
