Glue for Epee Wire I need to rewire a couple of epees and it has been about 8 years since I have done this so the glue I had is, well... Solid. 
Can anyone give me an alternative glue that I can get at Lowes or Home Depot that will work? Thansk.

Fletctite is the best that I have used. You can get it at any sporting goods store in their archery department. A vulture boards an airplane, carrying two dead raccoons. The stewardess looks at him and says, "I'm sorry, sir, only one carrion allowed per passenger."

The kids at my club use epoxy. It forms a nice bond, and during the drying process, it is very forgiving. They buy nursing syringes from a pet store, squish the epoxy into the syringe, stir it with a toothpick and viola.

Sorry I took so long to get back. Actually, no..the type they use is NOT brittle - it's quite flexible. Also, if you want to rewire, you simply pull on the wire, and the entire thing strips right out. I'll have to get the name of it...but it's perfect for kids - easy - no acetone - the only drawback is that it takes a day to dry.

I did not even know there was a regular. The store where I bought it only had the platinum FLETCH TITE. A vulture boards an airplane, carrying two dead raccoons.
