How I fixed my expensive broken glasses for less than $5!

August 18, 2019

I had a difficult time finding sunglasses that fit well and are comfortable. As a sailor I am particularly picky about them as they need to stay firmly attached to my face in all sorts of conditions and also be comfortable to wear. When I find a pair I like I want them to last!

Recently I picked up a new pair cause the old one went swimming. Bummer. The new pair has been great except for one tiny little flaw….the top of the left frame broke when I took it off :(.

Dang. Two pairs down in two months. I do not want to shell out money for another expensive pair of glasses…

Enter Gorilla Glue.

Gorilla Glue

For less than a latte, less than $5 I was able to repair those glasses!

Clean the break. Dab some Gorilla Glue on. Wait for 15 minutes. Good as new!

I have been wearing the sunglasses with the fix on them for a couple weeks now and I am happy to report they are holding up nicely!

So next time your glasses, or anything plastic, breaks- head on over to Amazon and get yourself a tube of wonderful Gorilla Glue.
