Rated 5 out of 5 by jaustindds from Best bonding agent on the market! SBU is my favorite bonding agent. It offers me the flexibility to etch in different ways depending on the application. This has reduced the amount of sensitivity post op that I see. Film thickness is low and can be thinned easily. Works great in my hands!
