I know it depends on the application and I didn't specify one but I've tried Crazy Glue, Gorilla Glue, JB Weld, PC-7 and a bunch of others. Anyone have any good stories? I used Krazy Glue on a toilet bowl in 1977 and it is sealed water-tight to this day!!! Thanks in advance for your input!

gorilla is excellent, just be carefull using it.
liquid hide glues excellent for wood joints
yellow carpenter's glue like "TiteBond II" for tight wood joints with possible exposure to moisture. some strength across gaps up to 1/32"
PL400 is good for joining wood with a wider void [they make other types for joining a lot of different materials, foam board, wood, treated wood, metal, and even stone] good for "weather exposure"
"liquid nail" types are an economical glue and do a decent job on joining wood with a narrow voids.
Hot melt glues are nice for their quick bite. i have even used them for temp. clamping of things glued by other methods
Krazy glue type are for plastics and smooth surfaces such as glass. i think it acts like million little suction cups to hold things together, thus it would not work well with porous stuff like wood or cloth.
two part epoxies, great for repairs to plastics. once filled and filed missing several teeth from a small gear. still working 20 years later.
contact cements are great for laminating counter tops.
for tile work i NEVER use mastics, always use thin set mortar that you mix.

I am a huge fan of Gorilla Glue.
The downside of this product is that is expands as it cures. Plan on it and it should be no problem.
I use groilla glue all over. I have used it on waterproof hiking boots that were coming apart ath the junction of the soles and uppers. Fixed!
This stuff sticks to anything!
PS: What makes you remember that you used a certain product in 1977? if that is accurate, I admire your memory.

Devcon 2-ton epoxy glue. This has some flexibility that allows it to take more stress. Only downside is the set up time.

You are right, Krazy Glue is one of the best.

I think the crazy glue is the one to get then if it lasted that long. You can also go to like NAPA and ask them, they will probably know what is good. You need to go to the store to get it anyway. Home Depot used to be real helpful, I have heard their help is not too knowledgeable anymore.
