Titebond II
Brian Whatcott wrote in message . ..
Yesterday, I was applying two by four doublers to one or two rafters and perlins in the roofspace of the homestread, cracked or broken after half a century's service. I left one doubler stud overnight, with some Titebond carpenter's glue applied to one face. This morning, I noticed I had left a fender washer on the glue face, and the glue had set 15 hours later. I tapped at the steel washer's edge to no avail, and finally hammered it off. It came away with a surface layer of softwood. I was more than impressed, not expecting such good metal/wood bonding performance from a one part white resin glue. It claims to be the strongest wood glue - and water resistant too, but not for use below the water line.
