  • Looking for a good glue for fixing plastic parts of toys broken by my kids.  Bonus points for a quick-drying, non-toxic, low VOC glue that comes in a container that allows you to use it multiple times after initially being opened.  Thanks!

What is wrong with cyanoacrylate glue–Zap Glues | Super Glue Corporation? Why does it have to come in a canister? A 1 oz. bottle is very economical and convenient to use–Amazon.com: Zap-A-Gap Adhesives, 1 oz is only $7.38 with free shipping. There is a product specifically for plastic–Plasti-Zap, but it only comes in 1/3 oz. bottles. The products for general usage are Zap-A-Gap CA+ and Zap CA. It lasts forever if you freeze it. I have a bottle that is over 10 years old and is still liquid. I had bottles that lasted over 15 years before a move separated me from them. It is not exactly non-toxic while it is liquid, but it is relatively inert once it hardens.
