The best way to fix a broken picture frame

The best way to fix a broken picture frame is to find a superglue that is compatible with the frame material – usually wood – and can provide a strong long lasting bond that is resistant to vibration, movement and temperature fluctuations. Should the picture be subject to damp surroundings then it obviously requires a superglue solution that is impervious to water ingression and damp atmospheric conditions.Conversely, atmospheric conditions might be extremely warm and humid and that is another consideration when choosing a suitable bonding solution. Wood, being quite porous,may require an application of a preparatory compound to create a sealed surface before the application of the super glue. You need to be aware of this situation before purchasing a bonding product to glue the frame together – as in the words of the proverb – forewarned is forearmed. It is advisable to choose a product that will work with the picture frame material – whether metal, glass, plastic or wood – with equal efficiency. The superglue will also need to be colourless and non toxic and provide a sealed picture frame corner joint that remains a tight fit with no adhesive shrinkage and loss of product attribute integrity. The question on everyone’s lips is – does such a superglue exist?
