I have used Revolution Nr3 medium and normal viscosity

Overall, even after applying 2-3 layers of this glue, using racket press for about 8 hours, the rubber comes off at the sides of the blades (head).

Removing the rubber is a breeze for re-applying the glue.

My only complain with Revolution Nr 3 glues, is that it cannot hold the rubber good enough.

Butterfly Free chack pro was better in holding the rubber and the blade, but removing the rubbers was a pain.

Use Revo 3 high viscosity.

In my experience, medium was worse than Normal. I had tried applying medium on a DHS Hurricane 3 and 8 rubbers. It would simply not stick!. ( i had made sure it was dry, basically the white colour of the glue disappears on the rubber)

Now you say high viscosity.. :confused:, i am not sure!

I understand your hesitation after 2 failures, also it is not the cheapest. All I can say, I'm using high-viscosity, 2 layers on rubber, 2 layers on blade, and it sticks well.

I must admit to also having some issues with Rev no 3 (Normal) - despite 2 layers on rubber and 1 on blade I have found that the rubber is very easy to dislodge with even the slightest touch to table, and when removing it it almost falls off, but the glue is tough to rub off the rubber.

I changed to Nittaku Finezip and it is night and day - easy to apply, very strong bond and peels off in minutes when I take it off.

I've never experimented with "strange inventions" trying to save and then regret it. I have been using all the time BTY Free Chack (not II and not II pro) just Free Chack and have never been disappointed. Recently read about DHS #15 that is also excellent and along with some other products ordered 500 ml bottle, which will be enough for a "while" ;)

I agree with that. I said that before and people do not believe me.

Butterfly makes you think that the glue makes a difference. Butterfly website says that Free Chack Pro II is "optimized" for Dignics and Tenergy rubbers. Is that true? I don't know. I don't think so.

I have used Donic, Neottec, and Revolution N3 without an issue. In fact I had a bottle of Revolution N3 250ml that I exhausted. I then bought a 500ml bottle but that glue was crap! I could not put my C-1 and my Rakza 7 soft onto my blade!

So I

Nothing is more frustrating when you literally look at the glue dry and yet the rubber does not stick on the blade....
Yeah ive just experience this. I glue and cut both dignics and h3 national and i checked the corners and they arent stuck and they wont even stick ive tried applying mlre glue in the corner and it wont work so i peeled them off but i think ill need to try a new glue bc the glue i used maybe not be strong. The glue i used is dhs #15 i dont like it. What glue should i buy to attempt to reglue. Im thinking either finezip or rev3

I use pretty much Butterfly Free Chack Pro II exclusively now. It dries very fast so you need to make sure you spread out the glue pretty quickly. After 20 minutes or so, I can apply another layer.

The rubbers stick on pretty well (not perfect, but better than other glues I have used).
