Hi, am a newbie on this site but not to the lifestyle and thought I would introduce myself to everyone on here. The subject has been playing on my mind today along with other random questions like "Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle?" or "Why is it that no matter what colour bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white?" If anyone knows any of the answers, my mind will be most grateful![]()

Okay... I am offically sad... I can answer that question........ this is where you need a nerd emoticon!!!!
Glues or adhesives tend to work in one of three basic ways:
* Some work by “drying” out (in fact the solvent evaporates, concentrating the chemicals).
* Some work by reacting chemically with the air (oxidation) to change the chemicals into adhesives.
* Then there are other types you may have used which need mixing in two parts (each part alone won’t set).
When they’re inside the tube the solvent can’t evaporate, nor can the air get to the chemicals, so until they come out, they won’t stick!
there........ did you really want to know.......
