Hi guys, this question may come from out in left field but I be curious. We recently gorilla glued all of our cool cuffs onto our vac hoses to stop air leaks. Man, it works great! You guys know if this holds indefinitely, or does the glue break apart over time and have to be re-done? I must be bored out of my mind to be sitting here asking dumb ass questions like this.........

Why would you worry about it? You'll find out if and when it breaks and just re-glue if you need to.

I would not use any sealant unless I am running a 36 or smaller blower.

How hard is it to resume a cuff if some hose is damaged?

Does the t&g come right off or can it be softend with a Chen?

I have 2 barbs glued into 2.5 inch hose and 1 has come loose. I was going to buy a new barb until Joe acted like a dick. I just glued it back in and its fine. I wouldn't glue on the 2 inch cool cuffs even though a hose failure with a 2 inch hose is rare.
