Need source for glue please!

[ImanCarrot]

I need an adhesive which will cure in about 5 mins under UV light but that I can remove after machining the part it's going to hold.

I recal years ago using a reddish pink adhesive which was perfet- it cured under UV to a consistency similar to the mastic stuff you stick round your bath. It could easily be peeled off the component after machining.

Unfortunately I,ve lost the contact name. I even phoned up Loctite and they say they do it, but it's not available in the UK.

I have, honestly, searched for days for this. Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

This is probably not what you are after, but would something that glaziers use to glue glass together be any good ?

I was thinking something like this :

I think you are after something a little easier to "undo" but if you scroll down it does say that the glue softens in water... not sure how much, I guess if you need to use a hammer to seperate then it MAY not be suitable

Talk to your dentist . They have all sorts of amazing adhesives these days that cure in a few seconds under UV.
