Stings like crazy, though. And if it’s still bleeding, the glue will cure up instantly on EVERY surface but the wound itself. Which means you end up picking off huge brown scabby-looking things and your hand looks like Amityville Horror.

The RN around here says “Clean the wound VERY well and only apply glue to surface layer of skin. You really don’t want to internally poison yourself” RN says I can poison myself anytime- the insurance is paid up.

So Sean uses superglue instead of bandaids too? I think it works great for that - closes the cut, protects it, and doesn’t even make it scar. Beats having a bandage on it that just attracts moisture and greasy dirt, before it catches on something and tears the cut open again.

Hobby shops are also a good source of cyanoacrylates. I like Zap, they offer many different types of “super glue” like slow setting, gel, gap filling, and flexible. And if the glue sets up to slow for you they even offer an accelerator.
