How to fix broken bricks?

I’m looking for a glue that will bond broken bricks. I have some chipped bricks that I would like to glue back together. As a newbie girl to DIY I have no idea which glue is best. I notice on YouTube someone using 
LoctitePL500 landscape glue but it comes from the USA and works out to over $50 by the time you add the postage. Is there anything similar I can purchase here in Perth WA preferably in small quantities as I only have a couple of small jobs?

If no small tubes, happy to purchase larger tubes.

Re: how to fix broken bricks?

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @megstar1. It's terrific to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about fixing bricks.

That product is a construction adhesive similar to Liquid Nails Landscape, which should work equally well. Alternatively, we have Sika 290ml Sikaflex®-118 Extreme Grab Construction Adhesive. It's another solid choice that would likely provide a stronger bond. Both of these products require a caulking gun to disperse them.

 

These specialised products only come in the larger tube and not a hand squeeze tube.

 

Ensure you brush the surfaces to which you're applying the glue to ensure a good bond.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
