Wood or composite blade? None of those are going to stick that good to composite.

If you have a local hardware store they should have a good selection. I just buy the one with the highest advertised strength. Those are also generally a longer curing type so you have more time to perfect your application. It is going to get chewed up anyway, so it does not have to look perfect.

QuikSteel Epoxy Putty is the best thing I've ever used to maintain composite hockey blades. This is very different than a 2-part epoxy that has to be mixed and is messy during application. Its bonding properties get "activated" by kneading the putty like dough just before use. It's perfect for filling knicks and chips in blades so they don't spread and lead to long cracks and all-out blade failure, which is almost impossible to repair without affecting the original performance and weight of the blade. Most repairs don't need further finishing, but the cured product can be sanded if necessary. I never thought this kind of product would work until I tried it, but it seems miraculous after repeated disappointment with 2-part epoxies that couldn't withstand the cold and wet of the ice. One of the best things about it is how quickly it works.

Read this description or search online for more info. It's available at most auto supply stores and Wal-Mart.

I know you don't want to wait, but thought I'd throw this out there
