      My daughter dropped my (new) liquid poly bottle onto the kitchen tiles. Broken glass and a smell of pear drops everywhere! I'll stick to the MEK. We used some stuff at college, think it was "???...dihydrochloride" for glueing acrylic sheet and polycarb. It was evil, would evaporate in half an hour. I spilled mine in my toolbox and it melted all my file handles together.

        Not sure what that was, most plastic (styrene) cements contain MEK (methylethylketone a.k.a.butanone) and/or trichloromethane. I'm not sure what is in cellulose thinners. I wouldn't want a large dose of any of them!

            You definitely wouldn't want a large dose of that. Most people will know it by its common name.....chloroform.

                Hi All just a quick tip I found that if you get some BT cable snip off one of the strands, strip it back to the length of the metal tube on the glue bottles it fits very snug into the tube and you can clear every blockage everytime
