Not so super; superglue....

In this particular case, what does the PE part actually add to the fuel tank? From the photo it looks like it’s no more than a simple band around it, in which case you could probably just replace it with a bit of plastic strip of the right width.

I use a fibre-glass pen to clean the back of the PE, and the plastic where the PE is going to attach. The CA? Well, I use Loctite CA, and keep it in the crisper drawer of my fridge - cheaper brands work OK, but seem to lose grab quickly, so the more expensive stuff is cheaper in the long run.

interesting about storing the stuff in the crisper drawer Dave, will give that a try myself.....

CA glues lose performance when opened, it's a sad fact. I already had to throw away two bottles of thin fas drying ca because it lost it's power. About keeping the ca in the fridge, I did that in the past, but I read that once a bottle is opened it's not a very good idea because of condense in the bottle. CA reacts to water and can degrade faster as well.

Currently on my spit that I am doing I am using cheap poundland super glue and i have no problems

I use that too, you get 5 bottles for a quid! does the job for me and it's stuck everything i've needed it to so far, including my fingers.

You wanted to stick your fingers together …?

Of course he did! You can't tell folks you've used Superglue without being able to tell them you managed to stick your fingers together - and you wouldn't want Alex to lie to his mates would you?:smiling:
