Has anyone tried it for guitar repair? They seem like a better alternative to CA glue for all kinds of things like nut fill and things like that. What are your experiences, if any?

Frank Ford on his website Frets.com uses one-the same one the Dentists use-seems good for certain applications like building up a nut slot.

Yea I know of frets.com, but then again he spent a lot of money on it and I just want to know whether or not the stuff they are selling these days are anywhere near the same grade of stuff?

I use a UV dental kit for nut repair as well. The primer and filler for that are very expensive. I doubt that the seen on TV stuff is even close but we'll never know unless somebody tries it out.
