Default habu glue?

Hi guys,

I have some habu fixing to do. Had some form of a lockout and now have to change to a new fuse.

Anyone know exactly what the white silicone glue is that they use? Is it anything special (brand/type)or is any silicone fine?

Thanks
Dave

Have you considered using a hot glue gun? I have used it with very good results.

Standard Cyno works as well.

I have had great success using the Gorilla white glue

http://www.gorillaglue.com/glues/fastcure/index.aspx

It has not been on the habu but has worked on everthing else.

As far as I can see its a silicon mastic, but being an Elepor closed cell structure type of foam anything will work on it that stays in place long enough or sets quickly enough whilst the two surfaces are held together, the trouble with CA is its rigid and the flex in the foam will eventually crack the glue joint, but OK for quick repairs, a flexable glue like UHU Por or silicon mastic will work very well and stay in contact with each surface even whilst flexing.
