Product Information
Full details
Gorilla Wood Glue is an ideal adhesive solution for professional contractors and woodworkers who require high-strength, water-resistant bonds for large-scale projects. This premium PVA adhesive excels at securing hardwoods, softwoods, MDF, and plywood with a rapid initial tack that minimizes necessary clamp time. While it offers a professional-grade, natural-looking finish, users should note that it is best applied in temperature-controlled environments to ensure the adhesive sets correctly across varying wood densities.

FAQs
Is this glue waterproof?
It is water-resistant, making it suitable for occasional outdoor exposure, but it is not intended for constant submersion.
Can I use this on metal or plastic?
No, this is a specialized PVA wood glue designed specifically for bonding wood-to-wood surfaces.
How long should I leave the clamps on?
While the initial tack is fast, it is recommended to leave clamps on for at least 30-60 minutes, with a full cure typically taking 24 hours.
Can this be thinned with water?
It is generally recommended to use the product as supplied to ensure the adhesive strength is not compromised.
What is the shelf life of an unopened bottle?
When stored in a cool, dry place with the cap tightly sealed, the glue remains effective for at least one year.
Troubleshooting
Glue joint is failing under stress
Check that the wood surfaces were properly prepared and sanded, and ensure sufficient clamp pressure was applied during the curing phase.
Glue is too thick to spread easily
Ensure the bottle has been stored at room temperature; cold glue may thicken and require warming to room temperature before use.
Excessive squeeze-out is difficult to remove
Wipe away excess glue with a damp cloth immediately after clamping; once cured, it is best removed by sanding.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal results, ensure your wood surfaces are joined with a tight fit, as the glue works best on wood-to-wood contact points. To use, apply a thin, even coat of glue to one surface. Bring the parts together and apply pressure using clamps; maintain this pressure until the initial set is achieved. For care, store the bottles in a cool, dry place and ensure the caps are tightly sealed after every use to prevent the adhesive from drying out inside the bottle. If the glue is exposed to freezing temperatures, it may lose its effectiveness, so keep your inventory in a temperature-controlled workshop.
