Not really, CA, Super Glue, Loctite, Crazy Glue, etc, etc.

All about the same, just you can different thicknesses from a thin watery type to a thicker almost gel like type. The thinner the CA, the faster it will set up, so sometimes good to have a couple of different thicknesses of CA on hand depending on what you are doing.

Something like a resin engine to put together, a medium is probably what you would want.

As far as difference between Loctite and what you would buy in a LHS. Loctite is something like .14oz or something for $3-$4, where as something like Pacer Zap CA is like $5 give or take for a little more than twice the amount of product. So you get more product for your money.

I used to sell the Loctite thin and gel here at the shop, but the prices on them jumped up awhile back so I switched to the Pacer brands, both work as well as the other.
