Re: Everyday Glue Recommendation

 

I was burned really badly by the TB cold press glue. Will never use it again. I buy the large tubs of the PPR and it takes me about a year to finish one. I¡¯ve never had a problem with shelf life. They sell a white tint powder to lighten it up if you are using light colored veneers.?

We often use white ash veneers?

and tint the glue.?

Fred,

????? I will agree with you on veneer glues. I've never liked any of the Tightbond glues for veneer work. The worst glue I've ever tried for veneer work was Tightbond Cold Press Glue. I do use Tightbond II for indoor general woodworking however. I use epoxy or Weldwood Plastic Resin Glue for exterior woodworking. I would not use Tightbond III for outside work. Do you know what the self life of Veneer Systems PPR is?? Weldwood Plastic Resin has a one year shelf life and it can be a problem finding fresh stock. Weldwood Plastic Resin works well for veneer work also, but it's pretty dark in color so best with reddish dark woods.? Tom Ruth
