Right, here's one for you lot. I have two ice cube trays. When I crack the ice trays and dump the ice cubes into the bin, some release cleanly and some stick like they've been superglued into the fucking tray. Sometimes all release, next time half stick and half come out cleanly. I've washed both trays, filled them with the same water. I've swapped positions between them. Nothing seems to change.

Really? There was me thinking that superglue needs the presence of water to work. Google reveals: "Cyanoacrylate is an acrylic resin that cures (forms its strongest bond) almost instantly. The only trigger it requires is the hydroxyl ions in water, which is convenient since virtually any object you might wish to glue will have at least trace amounts of water on its surface." Seems to be the exact opposite of your suggestion. -- ColonelTupperware, spouting bollocks on Usenet since 1997 Usenet FAQ at http://www.its.caltech.edu/its/services/internetapps/news/news2.shtml UPCE FAQ at http://upce.org.uk/ UKRM FAQ at http://www.ukrm.net/faq/

I reckon it costs less than reezing your own. I mean, less thana quid for a **** off bag of the stuff. -- Catman MIB#14 SKoGA#6 TEAR#4 BOTAFOF#38 Apostle#21 COSOC#3 Tyger, Tyger Burning Bright (Remove rust to reply) Alfa 116 Giulietta 3.0l (Really) Sprint 1.7 75 TS 156 TS S2 Triumph Speed Triple: Black with extra black bits www.cuore-sportivo.co.uk
Yebbut, the ice cubes do come out eventually, obviously after the bonds have been broken by the water.
