Big Jim's hot melt all the way.

Big Jim's hot melt. Get on his site and watch his video on this glue.

Is Jim's hot melt the same as Kimsha's hot melt?  The Kimsha stick is the only one I've seen in that dimension.
(Short and fat - like me.)

I use Insert Iron by Bohning. It is a heat reversible glue that cures in about 24 hrs. I have never had an insert come out when using this no matter what type of insert it is.

Thanks for all the input. I'm going with Insert Iron by Bohning.

I don't understand why the super glue works some times, and then fails badly and so on.
We do thousands upon thousands of inserts and mostly in Gold Tip. Had lots of problems with the superglue, ie.. tip grip, gorilla glue, goat tuff etc.
Since we have switched to the quick stick, all except the most rare insert stays put unless you want to remove them and I never clean or score the inside of the shaft unless doing CX shafts.

The Gorilla Super glue gel is the best ive ever used, bomb proof, also heat reversible.
