Hold repair beta thread
RobK:
Got a couple of questions about glueing limestone holds. I have always used this stuff for fixing loose holds
https://www.screwfix.com/p/easyfix-kem-psc-380-ef-polyester-resin-380ml/1245j.
It's worked very well, but wondering what is best for holds that have come off entirely. Pure epoxy is mentioned above, would that be something like this?

I also want to sure up a hold that is slightly wobbly, but the fractures around it are very small and needs something quite low viscosity to get in there. Would something as simple as super glue do the job here? TIA
Bonjoy:
Yes, that sort of epoxy should do the job. It's also available in full size gun resin tubed.
I,ve used superglue down hairline cracks and thin flakes. It sometimes works well. It can get in quite deep due to the capillary effect and bonds quite well if its a very thin crack and both sides match.
RobK:
Perfect, thanks Bonjoy
