Is there an inexpensive or reasonably priced adhesive/glue for glass?

Do you mean for a craft project or for a house/large project?

For craft projects, I like Beacon 527 glue. I don’t know if it’s good for large projects – it comes in a tube a bit smaller than a toothpaste tube.

E-6000. Anything you glue with E-6000 will remain adhered forever.

E-6000 is another good one. It seems a bit more flexible. It also smells for a long time.

Craft project for all intents and purposes. Glass repair. Are 527 and 6000 fairly inexpensive, and do they store well once opened?

At Walmart, less than $5 each. Yes, they store fine once opened, if closed properly.

Cool, thanks, @jca, @Mariah. We have a two-piece glass oil lamp that will not stay as one piece.

Do you think 6000 would work on shoes,as well?

I also have some Waterford salt and pepper shakers – crystal with silver tops – that need the tops reattached. The smell could be a factor there.

Go for the Beacon – it smells very strong at first but then is odor-free once it dries. The E6000 will smell for weeks, kind of a rubbery smell. The Beacon has a sharp smell, like nail polish but like I said, once it’s dry, no smell at all.

I like the Beacon better than the E-6000. I glued ceramic with it and you can’t even tell. I’d try either one on shoes, to respond to your question.

I’ve only used E-6000 so I’ll defer to @jca on this one.

The radio just said it’s 12° out, out, or I’d be off to the Walmart.

Thanks!

If you have Amazon Prime, I know they’re on Amazon. Order today, have at your door by Tuesday.

No Prime. The only way I can buy it online is to pay double for it.
I’ll pick some up tomorrow.

If I had to glue glass I would use an adhesive specifically formulated to glue glass. Glass is on of the most difficult surfaces to bond too and requires a specialized chemistry to get a long lasting bond. I would get Locktite Glass Glue which I think you can get at Home Depot.

Promising, @Cruiser!

@ibstubro: What kind of glue did you get and how did it work out?

I went to Walmart and, naturally, they were out of Beacon. I bought some E6000. A couple days late I was in a different Walmart in a different town, so I bought some Beacon. I have not used either one, yet.

After I open them I’m going to try putting them in a vacuum seal bag to try to extend the life. It’ll only take the one bag, and I can re-use it. I don’t know how often I’m going to use the glue, as previously the glass was just thrown out. Superglue is a joke on glass.
