Loose frets

[Gibby Fiddy Five]

I have a peruvian walnut fret board and quite a few of the frets are loose after instal never had that issue with red oak. What's the best solution for securing them,flood fret board with poly?Pull them out and glue them ,if so what kind of glue?

I recently had a few loose frets and after reading another thread on here I decided to try the "super Glue" fix.   It has worked but you really need to get a very small applicator to get the glue into the fret slot.........  Or you can try this stuff..........Hot Stuff premium quality cyanoacrylate glues are clear and are available in three types (each type denoted by colour): Red (HS-4) - Used for assembled joints such as chair stretchers and legs that are loose and won't come apart easily; tight cracks or any other place where a thin viscosity fast drying glue is called for. Yellow (HST-4) - A general purpose glue with medium viscosity and a moderate drying time that allows some alignment and assembly time. Green (HST-4T) - A heavy bodied; thick viscosity glue that allows maximum assembly time.

I've had similar issues. I just used a few dabs of super glue gel. Not too much so it holds them in place. I also have used Gorilla Glue.

Clyanoacrylate (superglue) in the slot.

Thanks for the info guys I'll get to glueing.

 I use the super glue as well.  I put a small dab of high flow, very thin glue, at the fret end and it wicks into the slot.  The high flow doesn't leave much glue on the outside wood edge and whats there can be lightly sanded off and refinished easily.

I also made a peruvian walnut fretboard. I used Gorilla Gel super glue to hold them in place. A little dab'll do ya!
