Gorilla 50002- Original Glue, 2 oz, Brown

This expanding glue was just what I needed to bond irregular wood surfaces. Just don't make the mistake (that I made in the past) of buying too much of this glue thinking it's more for your money. Buy only what you need for a job. Once opened, the glue might keep for a week or two, but not forever.

I have been buying this glue for years. It is a great glue to fix just about anything—I use it mainly for fixing broken plant pots. It makes a clay pot like new! I have used it for mending wood, clay, and ceramics. It is water tight after the fix! I highly recommend this product.

I was happy with the speed of delivery

why on Earth would someone order a large bottle of gorilla glue? in the ten times that I have had bottles of gorilla glue I have never gotten down to the last third of the bottle without it being totally dried up and unusable. The screw-on cap helps but it still happens. it just depends on how much of the bottle you want to waste. there's got to be a better way.

I would give the glue five stars had I not been disappointed with the shelf life after opening the bottle. But it has worked well where I needed to bond wood that is occasionally exposed to water.

This glue is excellent. I've used it to repair leather shoes. The repair has yet to wear out and it's been years. Over time however the glue does tend to dry out.

Takes too long to dry

The glue bonds very well. BUT, I purposely chose this type because it is brown and I was bonding two pieces of wood and I wanted it to blend into the wood. As it dried, it puffs up and dried white. Now I will have to cover it with some kind of wood stain so the glue is not so noticeable.

only for tasks that glueing-curing times be> 1 hr

Compared to the WHITE Gorilla Glue, this ORIGINAL (Yellow) glue doesn't compare. It's takes 3 times longer to dry, and unless you like the ugly golden brown color, must be painted. I'd like to know why the company DISCONTINUED producing the WHITE Gorilla Glue. I want an expanding foam product, but no one is going to want to hold pieces in place for 45 minutes while this ORIGINAL glue dries. If you don't it pushes the pieces apart. Most of my projects cannot be taped or clamped in place so I must hold them while the glue cures. The WHITE glue took about 15 minutes before the expansion stopped. This version takes 45 minutes!!!!
