Rhino Glue?

Has anyone used Rhino glue?. It' a "distilled" CA glue that claims to have a very long shelf life and it's supposed to be flexible and clear.

Their starter kit looks interesting.

I use Rhino glue when gluing large pinned parts together. I don't think it's good for tiny or fragile parts.
The instructions say you should moisten one part apply the glue to the other and then clamp them together. The RG foams a little bit as it cures, so if you use too much it most likely will come out thru the seam. It's not terrible to remove but it is an extra cleanup step. You'll quickly learn that when you think it's not enuff - it's enuff.
There may be different versions of RG for mine isn't clear but a brown to tan color.

That sounds more like Gorilla Glue. The Rhino site says the version they have (at least now) does not foam and does not require parts to be moistened.

Sorry then, wrong animal.
