Description
- Strong, permanent, fast and gap-filling; great for multiple surface applications
- Best for tough repairs requiring a durable bond, gap-filling and solvent resistance
- Dries clear; ideal for clean, easy finishing
- 6 minute set; plenty of repositioning time for the perfect fit
- Easy-to-use syringe; separate barrels of resin and hardener keep epoxy from hardening, plus syringe dispenses evenly and includes a cap for multiple uses

Good epoxy. It takes over night to really harden so don’t think you’re done after 5 minutes. Pushing epoxy and harder out at same time is wasteful and difficult. I cut the two plungers apart and things are much more controllable.

In the bathroom, we have cultured marble countertops and a matching (vertical) surround on the jacuzzi-style tub. While removing the tub surround to do some plumbing repairs, a hairline crack formed on one end of a 6ft panel, reaching roughly 2 ft in length. Rather than replace the panel, I decided to epoxy a 3/8″ plywood splint to the back of the panel, to maintain alignment of the two sides and hopefully prevent the crack from propagating further. I’ve used Gorilla adhesives before for woodworking projects, so I chose this epoxy product for the job.
My plan was to spread a thin layer of mixed epoxy on the back surface of the panel and then lay the plywood directly on it to form the splint.
So – My product-use experience:
The Gorilla Epoxy package instructions call for first inverting the syringe and bleeding air out of both sides, to assure smooth flow of the two components. Makes sense. These materials are very viscous however and one side cleared faster than the other, suddenly shooting a blob of liquid out the end – It was startling and was met with a few choice words as I scrambled to clean up the tile floor.
The tiny plastic mixing stick (found between the two plungers and essentially a fat toothpick) is nearly useless when you have a large area to cover and need to rapidly blend a lot of epoxy – remember that this stuff has a 5-minute set time. I smeared it around rapidly with the stick, but I doubt the result was homogeneous. When I set the plywood on top, I immediately moved it around clockwise, then counter-clockwise to better-smear/blend the two components.
I then set full 1-gal paint cans on top of the plywood, as there is no easy way to clamp this together, and I gave it 24 hours to cure. The next day, there was some clear, mildly sticky bleed-out along the edges of the plywood. It looked sloppy, but that side isn’t visible once the panel is installed so…
Fortunately, the epoxy seems to have fused the plywood to the stone panel fairly well. I doubt that I achieved the intended 3300psi bond strength, but this panel serves a largely a cosmetic service so there’s not really much load on it.
I wouldn’t call the process “easy-to-use”, but the plywood splint looks like it’s doing its job and the panel is now reinstalled. The hairline crack is barely visible, so as long as the panel doesn’t move any more, we should be good. Close-enough I guess.

They lose stars for the difficulty of following their instructions, but
They get more stars for making a product that sticks well even when the directions aren’t followed

Eventually the glue works well, but the process of getting the glue on was not all that easy. I had to hold on the first piece for quite a while before it stop falling off (and it was porous ceramic, not heavy at all), and by then I could not use the rest of the glue I had prepared as it became a lump.

This works better than the other glues and adhesives that I’ve used that have been “specifically” designed for jewelry making and crafting. Have always been thrilled with Gorilla Glue brand. Should’ve used it to start with instead of dorking around with the other stuff.

So pricey
Michelle Lee –
Not as strong as described. We followed the instruction exactly but the parts still fell separated after two days….

Great product

We found the Gorilla Epoxy as we wanted, selected it, then ordered 2 of the same item. We received two different items? The plastic bags in which they came were correctly labeled but one of them contained wood glue and the Epoxy Glue as we had ordered. We were very satisfied with the Epoxy Glue that we received, it worked as indicated and was exactly as we wanted. We will be calling to see how to proceed with the incorrect content. We rated above as a 3 star, but that was due to the incorrect item, the correct item was definitely a 5 star.

Will buy again!

Trying to glue a holder onto ceramic tile.
Nothing worked.
So far, all is well.
Will post a picture after 72 hours.
