Are we sure this is a PVA adhesive? Normally on a twin panel CRT the glass is bonded at the sides, mind the older twin panel tubes are constructed differently. The glass has extrusions that hold the tube to the cabinet by brackets. Rimband tubes are precisely that with a metal band round the tube with steel mountings on each corner.
I've a picture of a CME1908 when I had them in mid 2000s I'll post up.
