Default Re: Gorilla Glue: your experiences & opinions

If you decide to try it, wear gloves! You'll inevitably get some on your fingers otherwise, which will end up black. I'm not sure if there's some sort of reaction between skin and the glue (which usually cures amber-ish), or if it instantly attracts dirt.
In my experience, it's very effective provided one doesn't attempt to bridge a gap, as is true of many other adhesives. Carefully used, it can result in a joint stronger than the timber. Shelf life is a few months, after which it gradually becomes very viscous.
