  • I use items found in my wife's cosmetic drawer to fix broken eyeglass frames. The repair will be strong and long-lasting, as well as saving you money and time. As you can see in the video, I repaired these in a little over three minutes. Hope this hack helps those of you who wear glasses, or have broken sunglasses.

    The baking soda on top of the superglue is genius. Totally repaired the bridge of a very expensive pair of eyeglass frames. Thank you!

      @@loladrizzy13pl I used it on a broken wet vacuum nozzle which is usually under high pressure from water, so glasses should hold very well👌🏾 I’ll add that you wipe the surface clean before applying the first layer of glue

    This is similar to how acrylic nails are applied. The liquid solution is mixed with acrylic powder in layers. I've never seen it done with super glue and baking soda. I learned something new. Thanks!

    Thanks so much for this video. The bridge broke splitting my glasses in 2 I just glued it back together with baking soda and it seems strong. I don't have time to have new ones made and apparently my frames are discontinued plus I have a flight to catch in 2 days. This just saved me tons. Thank you so my friend

    If the hinge is metal and your frame is plastic. You can heat the metal hinge with a soldering iron and metal it right back into the plastic no super glue needed.

    • @donnmccarthy8710
      @donnmccarthy8710 Před 4 lety

      Daiyaan Davids amen! I have an assortment of various adhesives in the office where I work. Not only do frame and lens materials contributing factors but location of the break must be considered as well. I prefer slow set two part epoxy in general but adhesives are also available that have a little flexibility making them less prone to cracking. Overall cyanoacrylate glues are the worst choice. However, as you pointed out, using ANY adhesives is only a temporary solution and in no way could it be considered “good as new”
