Title: Wood Glues Question
Post by: baileyuph on February 20, 2015, 07:02:52 am
In the mist of our cold, left wood glue in service vehicle and ..........it froze.

It is taking what appears a long time to thaw in room temperatures.

My question is, does freezing glue down grade glue quality after thawing?

Professional glues froze - Titebond and Elmer's

Titebond
Freeze-thaw Stability
The ability of a product to remain usable after it has been frozen and thawed.
Some wood glue will have a "cottage cheese" look after freezing. If this happens,
shake/stir glue to original form.

Thanks for the encouragement Paul.  I used the Titebond today and all seems strong.  Sure thaws slowly.

Take care,

Doyle
