Bonding Cuben with Aquasure or Liquisole?

Ok, innitial very non-scientific testing shows that it's much stronger than the tape I got so I'm gonna proceed with making a proper clamp and do some more testing. But it would be nice to hear if anybody else have tried these glues before.

Never used either, but Aquasure is a McNett product who also makes Seam Grip, Aquaseal, etc which work well on cuben. I wouldn't be afraid to try it personally. I would just continue testing on small pieces before taking the plunge on a larger project. Maybe someone else will chime in that has used it.

To bond Cuben I was looking for Aquaseal (or Hysol) in Europe and couldn't find it anywhere. In the end I contacted McNett USA and asked where I could find a dealer in Europe. Their answer (partly):

> "To better serve our European market, we ask that you please direct your inquiry to Roy Whitehead, Managing Director at McNett Europe. McNett Europe, Germany, is a division of McNett Corporation and manufacturer and exporter of McNett products to Distributors in 35 European countries." <

After contacting McNett Europe:

> "Aquaseal in Europe is sold under the brand name Aquasure. You may find suppliers by using a search engine i/e Google etc."<

After finding out that Aquaseal was exactly the same as Aquasure, it was easy to find a distributor locally. Since, I've bonded several pieces of Cuben (with this Aquasure) with -seemingly- good results, so far – I haven't done any testing (yet) and haven't been able to take any of the bonded pieces into the field (yet). That's why I'm a bit reluctant to recommend the Aquasure.

Nice! Thanks alot for that information! I suspected that was the case since the description was similar and I couldn't find any information about Aquasure on american sites.

I have tried a few samples but haven't been able to pull them apart in sher and in peel the cuben gets pulled apart isntead of the glue so I guess it's game on!
