I was just wondering if it was good for metal or metal/ plastic minis

Gorilla is a brand, and even assuming you mean cyanoacrylate, they make more than one sort.

But broadly, yes, it's fine.

I have been very happy with Gorilla brand super glue gel.

Keeping the hobby side alive!

I like Gorilla Glue as well, but I may be a little biased since it's a local company...

Thank you all.
I didn't realize how many different versions there are.

Are there any that don't work well with gw plastics?

The superglue is great. Do NOT try the Original Gorilla Glue. It’s a polyurethane glue that foams and expands.

The 5 minute epoxy version from Gorilla Glue is good for securing metal or resin to plastic. Just need some poster putty/tac to hold the parts in place. Much stronger than superglue in the long run.

My two cents,

I have one called 'Gorilla Super Glue' with a blue top. I much prefer it to other brands of super glue that I have tired, although that is less to do with the properties of the glue and more to do with it coming out easily and not gumming up its own nozzle. In terms of sticking power it seems fine, but I still much prefer plastic glue for regular plastic. Not tried it on metal, mostly resin.

To quote one of the gamers who got me into the hobby: "I use Gorilla Super Glue because it has a monkey on the front."
