Centuri Glue?

Here's one I saw for sale on Ebay -

Centuri Model Rocket Super Bond Glue.
"Twice As Strong As White Glue"

This was in the Centuri catalogs for years. I always thought it was interesting that Centuri had it's own formula glue, especially made for building model rockets.

I got to know the Centuri guys at the NARAMs in the mid 1970s. I asked Bob Del Principe what made their model rocket glue so special.

He turned to me with his hand part way over his mouth and whispered: "We buy Titebond in gallon jugs and fill Centuri labeled smaller bottles."

  1. Yes that is funny. They also sold Balsa sealer and filler, I wonder what brand they used for that.
