In my experience, having been using CA to build models (airplanes before I got sucked back into rocketry) for ~40 years, as it gets older it slows down. Eventually it stops being a very good adhesive for joining parts but still can be a usable coating if you can let it cure. This seems to be true of both the expensive brands (say, Zap) and the cheap stuff (like they sell at Hobby Lobby). Probably to get what you want you'll have to age it.
Small bottles deteriorate (age) more quickly than big ones in my experience.
Probably no oak barrels required, though
