    I have done 100's of Tips with this Glue mate and I have found this is the Best on the Market to Use as Nozzle Doesn't Clog or Dry up.

    Hope this Helps.
    Gazza,

    1. On the pic it doesn't say "non drip gel" as I can see.

    2. How exactly do you use it? Do you put one drop on the ferrule end and then gently tap tip to keep centred until it firms up and then apply a lot of pressure? Or do you have another method? Putting on that many tips, you have to be an expert and your advice is appreciated.

    Thanks, Wayne G

    I got some from a proffesional glue business off ebay. £3 for 25ml i think (might have been 50ml even, not sure). The lid has a pin within it so it keeps the nozzle clear. Put on 4 or 5 tips so far with it and no issues. Much cheaper than loctite.

    I use loctite gel also. I only wait about ten minutes after fitted, then just trim and shape. Leaves me ready to play straight after without any issues. So yes super efficient.

    yeah i used bison for a while too n stopped for some reason too, seems the days of the old tip cement, clamp and overnight wait for cutting and shaping are long gone!

    Yea loctite gel gets my vote. Although I did use mitre jointing spray and gel once on an old cue!! Tips still there!

    I normally go for Loctite brand as in the past have tried Bostik and it was poo. Never had an issue with Loctite gel.

    Any super glue gel will do the work. Used more than ten brands and all were good enough.
