web250 Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Well hookah heat doesnt get that hot...so maybe, but your proably better off buying a new bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenwasabi Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I don't think super glue is a good idea simply because the heat might make the superglue give off fumes or chemicals. Maybe you should try epoxy. My friend did that when he broke his "tobacco" glassware and it's worked fine for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morphine7399 Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Some super glue is bad for things like this and give off chemicals odors, the best super glue for repairing smoking devices in my own opinion is Gorilla Glue, it is all natural so it doesn't smell strongly of chemicals. It is also waterproof and it works on about anything, the only bad thing about it is it takes 3-4 hours to dry.

kilgore trout Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I used Gorilla Glue to repair my bowl after I dropped it. It has held up for almost a year now, even though I really should have just gotten a new bowl by now. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gambit13 Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I don't think I would be too comfortable smoking glue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
