Question 1

Is the product ok for outdoors? I need to fix a downspout bracket to a stone wall (can't get a drill in).

Accepted Answer

Materials Scientist, this specific application is difficult for any adhesive. You want to bond Polypropylene? UPVC? to a stone permanently in a UK exterior climatic environment. First response is try harder to achieve a mechanical fix even to the extent of fabricating a metal bracket. Second response, under the average climatic conditions specified. Epoxy will provide good adhesion to UPVC, but will fail over time at the stone interface, time dependant on where in the UK & load the joint is under that may vary with ambient air temperature, maybe 5 years if lucky. Epoxy to Polypropylene forget it. Note: If the bracket is UPVC you might get a better life by using an exterior grade low modulus Silcone sealant / adhesive such as used for sealing UPVC windows to masonry because Silicone will flex with ambient air temperature but eventually the joint will fail at the stone interface. Sorry this is a nasty application, reality, go mechanical for a 'permanent' fix.

Question 2

I need to repair some white bone china.  What colour is it when dry, please?

Accepted Answer

Araldite when dry is a  slightly yellowish colour not totally clear.  You would need to economical in applying it to the joint - any excess onto the china can be wiped off with methylated spirit before the glue begins to set.  Superglue might be a better option as it is usually clear when set - also the two pieces can be held tightly together by hand until the glue sets usually in less than a minute.  Be careful not to get any on skin or you will bond your skin to the china as well.  You can purchase superglue remover when you buy the glue.  Toolstation’s (A diy supplier) own make of superglue and remover is excellent and good value.
