Okay, we kinda have a problem. A pearl fell off of Mom's ring. We tried to superglue it back on, and it held for a while, but then fell off again. Do you know of any other glue that would keep it on for good?

Yes I do. It is extremely messy if not used right, but it will do a way better job than super glue. Use a hot glue gun.

Or letting it dry first also helps.

Takun

Yes, that works too. ;)

My real Poison team in BW2. They all have perfect natures and EV's. I went the extra distance and bred the right IV's into them. Come at me bro.

You could also try epoxy. Very strong stuff.

However, if it's a valuable or very nice ring, you might consider taking it to a jeweler to get it fixed. Sure, it may cost you, but as long as you have both pieces, they could probably repair it perfectly.
What, you expect me to say something witty?

Use a glue gun! It sticks, and it dries fast!  ;)

Alright, I mentioned all of those ideas, we're gonna see how it works. Thanks guys :)

AT LEAST WAIT 3-5 HOURS FOR IT TO DRY!

3-5...3-5=-2. Okay, wait negative two hours for it to dry. Got it.

[-2 = to, 3 to 5 = -2 so... Ma, where's the calculator?!

Had to do it :P]

I use hot glue, e6000, or KRAZY GLUE for my stuff. It's... damn good stuff.

But messy. e6000 dries clear, but it's nasty smelling.

Aha, I wish I'd been here earlier to tell you x_x;

I saw Sumo Glue.  :-\ i think it... i dont remember

Yeah... Super glue is like nail glue (basiclly the same sort of glue). It works for awhile but craps out.

Twilight Wolf

Well, it depends on what it's being used on. Remember when I opened up my Master System to clean it and those screw posts broke? I used some Super Glue on those (even the one that pretty much shattered, which I also put a bunch on the outside of) and they held together amazingly. After the glue dried, I got the system screwed back together with no problems. However, when I've tried it on other plastics, it just fell apart. Different materials work to different degrees with different adhesives.

Duct Tape.

WORKS WONDERS.

(Seriously, maybe a jeweler knows?)
