Guys I've been using satellite city super t the thick stuff. I see a lot of guys using smooth-on. I haven't had any problems with them lifting yet, but I'm wondering if I should be using smooth-on.

What are your thoughts?

Thanks Cory

Only real bowyers use smooth on..    

It's all I've ever used and never had any problems. But that doesn't mean I'm a real bowyer:)

I've used both.  But prefer the thick ca glue because of time

Nothing but Smooth-On

Have had good luck with the Gorilla high impact super glue, but prefer good old smooth on.  Never a problem with it.

Wow for a minute Roy had me going thinking I was a REAL bowyer.   :D  But then I read the rest of his post. It's all I've ever used and when I haven't had a problem with something it's hard for me to change. I'd love to try super glue sometime strickly for the speed though.

Somehow to me super glue just doesn't belong on a wooden longbow:) But I'll use the other high tech glues like Smooth On and Urac185 while my supply last's, then it's gonna be Unibond800:) Guess I'm not a real Traditional Bowyer..  

I use the Smooth-on exclusively. In the past, I've had a yellowish discoloration show up between the overlay layers when using certain types of ca.

I use Kwik-It.

Back when Ann and Earl Hoyt were just closing out their shop. I stopped in for some bargains and a,final tour.
They used the CA type glues for their tip overlays.

I use Smooth-on. It is easier to feather into the glass, well maybe not easier but looks better when finished. Bob

Smooth-on next to the glass-- better fade outs.
