Difference Between Super Glue and CA Glue: Super glue, cyanoacrylate, and CA glue are all different names that describe the same instant adhesive. Various user groups adopt different names for them. For instance, woodworkers, model-builders, serious hobbyists and skilled crafting pros use terms like cyanoacrylate adhesive or CA glue. Commercially, most know the adhesive as superglue.

Starbond Super Fast Thin CA
Starbond Super Fast Thin is a thin viscosity CA Glue. The watery-thin cyanoacrylate glue infiltrates hairline fractures, pores, and narrow slots filling any empty voids. Thin super glue is suitable for strengthening porous and fragile material: soft wood (balsa), ceramics, unpolished rocks and minerals, and fossil bones. During powered inlay applications, the glue stabilizes the material through capillary action. In addition, the instant adhesive will rapidly soak into soft, porous objects until full saturation is achieved.
