Devcon Trimbonder Two-Part Glue for Azek
This next week I’ll be trying out the Devcon Trimbonder system for Azek, Kleer, etc. It’s a gunnable, two-part curing glue/filler.
It uses disposable mixing nozzles, like some other twin-tube guns for epoxies, Corian glue, Epcon, etc.
The tech reps can’t tell me whether my ITW Epcon twin-tube gun will handle the ITW Devcon twin-tube Trimbonder cartridges. After all, how could I expect them to know something like that?
So I’ve ordered the single-tube, regular-caulk-gun version, with a 9-month shelf life v 12-month for twin-tube.
They did tell me that my Devcon Mark 5 epoxy gun (I love that thing!), with the mixing nozzles, will take the 50 ml Trimbonder cartridges. But they’re only twice the size of those 25 ml Devcon hypo-style 5-Min and Two-Ton units you buy off the hardware-store hooks in the blister packs. That’s too small for big jobs.
The Mark 5 style will be marketed for filling nail holes — Yes, a two-part nail-hole filler! And they tell me that hypo-style nail-filler units, with mixing nozzles, will be showing up soon at HD.
I’ll weigh in with a full report when this current job is finished.
Meanwhile, anyone used this stuff? Let’s hear it.

Over 24 hours and still no takers?
Am I the first guy to use this stuff or what?

most seem to use PVC cement...

Yeah, BTDT. Some of us are looking at products like what gzajac (Greg in CT) is using, though. The advertised shear strength of up to 3,412 psi for B&F is pretty impressive, and certainly better than standard PVC cements.But there’s more related BT activity over at: 118845.1, Glue for Azek?...... than there is here, so check it out.I’ve currently got Devcon’s Trimbonder on order, and will report back at the end of the week after I’ve used it.AitchKay
Sounds like Corian seam fill almost. Remember that? Vibrate it with a sander for 45 seconds then the mix tube schnozzle? Sphere used it for custom guitar fingerboard inlays, dyed and with added Pearl Dust..cool stuff.
