Strong glue with low odor?

[Former_Member]

Anyone have suggestions for a strong glue that has low odor and dries clear? Water-resistant/proof would be a plus. I'm currently using an epoxy glue but it smells horrible before it's completely dried. The only other glue I'm familiar with is E6000 so I'd like to hear about other glues you all have tried. Thanks in advance!

What epoxy are you using, Jennifer? 330 epoxy has only a very faint odor unlike some other epoxies.

E6000 is pretty toxic, but works very well. If you do go for one of the more toxic glues, I highly suggest getting the MSDS from the manufacturer, which will have info about safety risks and proper ventilation/use requirements.

I always use Devcon 2-ton epoxy. There is basically no odour at all & it is very strong.

Yip, I too use a Two Ton epoxy from True Value Hardware store. $6.99. Tubes clear and push out to mix. No smell....its been the best for my small gluing projects....stones, concretions and crystals for my bracelet's.....aka crucdeco shop.

Thanks for the suggestions! I've been using a quick drying epoxy from the hardware store.

The slow-drying epoxy is stronger than the quick dry as well.
