Not embroidery, just want to put a picture of Gorilla Glue for those that are interested in the product. I live in Canada and buy it at Safeway, Home Depot, Walmart.

Very strong glue, just don't use too much as it EXPANDS.

I over tightened a screw on a pot handle and now the sew is always loose due to the plastic handle is cracked will this work on it, since it's a pot and the heat of the stove can be very hot? :)

I don't know but its worth a try, I would get the bottle that looks like super glue (laying on its side. You might be able to get a combo pack, but again this is very strong and only needs a little. I am not an expert on this glue,I have just used it and don't want to ruin anything anyone tries it on.

I have contacted the company (Revere Ware) that made my pots and pans and they replaced two handles for me free. You might want to check your pans warranty. Thinking it would work and even go through the dishwasher. Since it's the handle and not an eatable surface I would go for it if you don't have a warranty.

I didn't have a problem with my pots, I bought it for other purposes and so far it has been great on everything I have used it on. Just handy to have around and better than Super Glue or Crazy Glue.

Love this stuff. An ambulance (not on a call and they got the ticket) hit my husbands car and I took all the pieces and Gorilla glued them back. The car sat outside in below freezing weather and summer heat and the glue withheld the extreme outside temperatures. Jerri is right about it expanding. The glue is extremely sticky and if you spray a fine mist of water on it, it helps fill up all the spaces to fuse . Does help to stick a piece of tape over the crack to avoid it expanding outwards. Before it hardens it can be scraped even. Have also used the Gorilla Tape and you need gorilla brute strength to unroll a piece of it but it sticks better than Duct Tape. By the way the ambulance did pick up the pieces, checked my husband's blood pressure and made sure he wasn't injured.

Glad someone else has tried it and can give some input on the product.

I've gone through 3 or 4 bottles of this stuff. After the first bottle dried up the new ones I purchased went into a small glass jar. Protect surfaces you do not want to get this on. It is hard to scrap off.

I think just about anything Carolyn, just read the package. There are different packages. If you go to Home Depot, they might be able to help you.

I have looked at it several times but never tried it. I had no idea that it expands. Thank you for the heads up!!

Yes, it does, so just it sparingly especially around the edges.
If you buy it, test it first so you see what I mean, you don't want glue oozing out of the edges. It is one tough glue.
