Hello Deb, Thank you for your inquiry. Readily mixes with water or can be blended dry into molding material such as plaster or papier mache for instant color. We do not recommend it be used any other way. Please let us know if there is anything else we can help you with. Kind Regards, Elsie Customer Service Representative S&S Worldwide

I wouldn't use this over wood. Maybe finish floor polish for wood? I have used the acrylic polish for non wood floors to finish a lot of product s. But I wouldn't use glue.

This glue is strong if you are gluing one piece on top of another but I would use a differnent type of glue to fill gaps, like construction glue in a tube. What is it you are trying to glue?

Yes, but... the glue is water based. You should use alkyd base paints only.

Not no, but Heck NO! This stuff is for wood products. You might try a two-part epoxy such as Dev-con from B.E. Atlas.

After having a 35 year career in miniatures building and teaching, I can guarantee that "Yes" glue is the ONLY glue I ever used!!! Fabulous. If too stiff, use hot water and dilute in VERY TINY increments stirring as you go until it becomes like thick syrup. A lot of book binders also use this glue. Cheers! Brooke Tucker

after some research I have decided to use White gorilla wood glue and follow instructions that I was able to find on youtube. Have not started the project yet but this is my plan

the gluing area should be free of paint, oil or dirt and then glue. if you are going to prime , remember white primer for light colors and grey primer for darker colors

I'm not a glue expert but this is the best epoxy for plastics I ever try. I heard about application for sail boat ballast in salt water. Swimming pool job looks easy to compare with. Important to keep surfaces perfectly clean and adhesive (surface must have some fine structure for glue to adhere, not be shiny or glossy). Some plastics required flame surface activation. Because glue when cured stays flexible, water pressure will only help to seal connection.

For coloring the resin I have used Custom 4 Coloring Kit for Epoxy Gluing or Repairing of Granite,... Sold by: GRANITE POLISHING PADS You can order this item from amazon. The dye is very efficient and seems to work very well with the resin. Yes this epoxy appears to be some sort of polyester. As soon as u add the hardener the epoxy hardens fast but it gives you enough time work with. My results were very good although didn't polished it yet. Good luck

If you can use screws to attach metal and wood, it will be better ...... I don't think the glue will work with metal, unless is Gorilla Glue, 100% water proof. Which you can use it to almost everything, metal, wood, ceramic, plastic etc.

Hi. I have not had it yellow on any wood I have used. Always test a spot or two before applying on entire surface. I like this as it works well on so many woods and holds up so well. Good luck with your project. Last thought, a little goes a long way.Old Nick

Glue ... I prefer wood glue, Elmers white glue or the tan-colored water-proof wood glue. It's inexpensive and easy to clean up. The only draw back is the drying time. Joined surfaces must be taped, clamped or held steady while the glue dries. This is where the cyanoacrylate (super glue or instant glue) come in handy. They dry instantly, but the odor and getting the adhesive stuck to your fingers can be a problem. They both work good. Tissue tightening .... You must first apply the tissue tight and flat as possible. Use tissue dope (best) or diluted white glue (50/50 with water) to attach a leading or trailing edge first. When this dries wrap the tissue around the wing and attach to the opposite edge. Leave the spars or other wood in between unglued. Wrinkles are the worst and must be avoided. When the tissue is dry spray the surface lightly with water using a mister or spray bottle. Do not soak. Air dry if the room temperature is warm, otherwise put it in the oven with just the light on. The tissue can be re-soaked and re-dried several times if needed. Be careful, over-drying can can warp the surface if it gets too tight. Hope this helps Brad

Don't use this stuff. I used it and it never really dried. It stayed sticky for for 2 months. Try elmers epoxy.

You can use this product to color epoxy that can be used to repair granite chips. However, repairing chips with standard epoxy is not a simple nor a fool-proof process. The epoxy may or may not stick well with a small chipped area, and even if it does, getting the epoxy shaped exactly right is challenging. The epoxy will need to be sufficiently thick (viscous) to hold its shape, and then you must fine tune its shape with a razor blade during a very short and precise period of time when it has begun to cure but not cured too much. So yes, you can color match epoxy using this product, but that's the easy part. Have fun!

First you start with a colorless epoxy. Then you can add tint (like from this kit) or any "really white" filler you think you can get away with. Depends on how much strength you need. If you just want a coating, go with epoxy paint. I've used expensive marine stuff that is very white.

We haven't used these on wood, but you can always add a dab of any kind of glue to the back of them if the adhesive doesn't end up being sticky enough for your liking. They stick well enough to paper that if you try to pull them off the paper comes with it!
