What a great subject. This has always been in contention since it's invention.
I always use a little drop and squash flat and hold for a few minutes, so I'm afraid my knowledge is limited.
It's easy to find the worst, when it falls apart.

Very interesting. Nothing came out on top, they all had advantages and disadvantages in differing tests...conclusion, if what you use makes you happy, stick
with it.

There are also different grades of CA, from thin to gel. Each is designed for different materials. One brand might be thinner/thicker than another and better for specific materials. Kickers also help for some tasks.

I quite like the Gorilla, not least because it comes in a good size bottle with good cap which does not seize solid. If you want it to bed pretty instant a little moisture to one surface , breathing on it is usually enough.

Found my favourite about 2 years ago from Screwfix 50g bottle and cheap and I have to say it's pretty good stuff too, glues everything the rest will for 1/10th of the price

and I had the first bottle open for over 1 year without it going off either
