Joe Handley Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Does anybody have suggestions for this? My Brother in Law’s Mom forgot to put a porcelain Baby Jesus away before my Niece’s birthday party today and one of the kids in attendance got ahold of it and dropped it, breaking it’s head off. Sounds like it belonged to her Mother and we were looking for an adhesive to pit it back together with. And yes, she knows what happened and luckily it’s got clothing that would cover where it’s glued back together too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 When I was in junior high, I broke my French teacher's ceramic Francis of Assisi statue. Elmer's Glue All did the trick. Today, I'd opt for clear epoxy or a cyanoacrylate (super glue). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOBLNG Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 My first thought was epoxy, and that is what is recommended here. Good luck with it. https://www.lakesidepottery.com/Pages/Pottery-tips/epoxies-vs-cyanoacrylate-super-glue-crazy-glue-ceramic-china-repair.htm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1930fordpickup Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I agree with Greg. Epoxy is the better option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake45 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I've fixed stuff like this with CA very successfully. I can't imagine it will see much stress. Epoxy will also work very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I have had success with the Garella product line. Even glued the cement legs for a yard bench back together. Sits outside 24/7 for years and still will hold my fat bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
