Hi Franchiquito,

I do not know that brand, but if you mean super glue or one seccond glue, yes. A lot of flamenco guitarists use it. If you play a lot, your nails wear out very soon, especially the thumb.

Hallo Dotsujin,

wenn Du Dir mal die Fernsehwerbung ansiehst, dann kommt da ein Spot, wo ein Mann mit den Schuhen an die Decke geklebt wird. ==> Loctite ist ein sehr starker (sehr sehr starker) Sekundenkleber.

Translation:

It's a superglue.
