This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment The CA glues themselves have very low toxicity. And although some companies (Sur-Lok, for one) market their products as "solvent free", most are 99% methyl or ethyl cyanoacrylate (butyl and octyl cyanoacrylates are used for surgical closures, an indication of their low toxicity!). Of the two, I would look for one that is ethyl cyanoacrylate, as a little safer than the methyl. Maybe fewer fumes. But the fumes, though not terribly toxic, are irritants. So keep up with the ventilation. As for safety, anything that works this good, ya gotta be careful with!

Do you have any insight into the kinds of CA that claim to produce fewer fumes than others? Are there kinds that are safer to use? --Cy Shuster-- Boston, MA ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
