I tried that amazon, stuff, and the gluemaster stuff is so much better.
As i said, you use the thick and accelerator, to tack the rocks, and then use the marco powder and thin as the motar.
Its sets so strong that a very long single 1 piece that can defy gravity.
Infact i could progbably even lift it at the arms slowly, and it would probably not break at the joint.
If your going to just tack the rocks and use a putty / filler, then a thick with accelerator is probably the best.
If your going to use Marco Powder and go all bells NSA, then you want both as i stated in my first post.

No, the super glue is applied and then squirted with the accelerator. It will set almost instantly. After that you mix cement and apply onto all the connection points. I waited two days between gluing and cementing because the inner surface of the glue bind is still soft for around 24 hours.

Thanks! Just tried aqua forest stone mix. It supposed to be super strong after 15 minutes but that must be a Joke. Let me try again with waiting 24 hours and keeping everything in place with super glue
Order this it works very well but after you cement it don't move it for a few hours. Be sure to spray the structure to just wet the surface which make it easier to work with

I used Marco powder and starbond brand thin superglue. The joint was solid in 30s with no need for accelerator. Starbond is marketed for woodworking and is a really good product.

So you only put the powder on the super glue? Or did you follow the instructions and mix it etc?I used Marco powder and starbond brand thin superglue. The joint was solid in 30s with no need for accelerator. Starbond is marketed for woodworking and is a really good product.
I use the gel to do a basic hold in place, then use the marco mortar. Highly recommend using the mortar then thin super glue with dust from breaking up the rocks to hide the mortar and blend the joint areas
