Yes I use this But Not super glue !! I use NR 401 !! It's realy good ,
But what Dean says is this ' " Superglue with a time to adjust factor . .. Is the same but gives u more time to adjust the tip !! I have never tryed this one !!

Retipped 7 cues the other day, 3 with elk masters, two with pro granite and my own cue with ADR 147 tip. First visit with my new tip 26 break which is good for me and a couple of shots latter it fell off, gutted so I put on the other one of the two I bought and after a couple of shots it fell of again. Out of the 7 cues retipped 4 tips fell off, it has to be down to the superglue I was using, must have been too brittle, anyway gutted because these tips are not cheap . I will have to try the ADR 147 again though because it shaped great and felt great from the first shot. I will need to get new glue , what a waste of an afternoon.
Any advice on a recommended glue?
Cheers. Ricky

I used the Loctite Super gel before but found it was a little too brittle and occassionally (if you didn't apply it just perfectly), tips would come off or seperate. After experimenting, I found the Gorilla gel is better and also has a shock-resistant formula built in.

Andrew, has anyone in Vancouver, Canada bought your tips already that I could buy from? Would save on the shipping that way.

THanks

The loctite is shock resistant also, I've never had any problems using loctite gel

My soft ADR tip is has now seen several hours of play and I'm really happy with it – excellent feel and cueball control. It's trimmed to 10mm on a snooker cue I use for American pool and is holding shape and chalk well. Last night I ended up unexpectedly playing on American, English and snooker tables (long night!) and used the cue throughout – very versatile. Now considering an ADR replacement for my Elk'd cue I normally use for snooker (although I have some soft Talismans coming to test out too)...

Playing pool this week for the first time in 25 years and have decided I might be best to retip the old cue, would my old tip (unknown brand) have "aged" in it's case? I do want a new cue sometime but first things first.

Would I be best to get a medium or hard? I have a 9.5mm tip.

Also, any discernable difference between black and standard other than the aesthetics?

Will get either Loctite Power Easy or Gorilla Gel although the Loctite 480 looks a good belt and braces glue.

Or a soft ADR147 tip?

same tips different colour - try a medium first.

Fitted a medium in the end and had my grand return last week.

Took my time with the retipping to do a perfect job and I'm very happy with it. I've been out the game for so long any tip would probably have done but I wanted to start back with a tip I'd be most likely to stick with.

It took a few frames to get my eye in but I certainly managed some decent shots and my failings were in my rusty performance not the superb tip.

Fantasic speedy service from ADR147 too, can't fault him or his products.
