Titebond Liquid Hide Glue, 8-Ounces #5013
From the Manufacturer
Titebond Liquid Hide Wood Glue. The first hide glue to be offered in a liquid, ready-to-use form - requires no heating or mixing. Professional woodworkers use this formula for its exceptional strength, long open assembly time, excellent sandability and superior creep resistance. Craft hobbyists utilize Titebond Liquid Hide Wood Glue as a "crackling" medium to achieve a weathered look on furniture, cabinets, picture frames and other items. Its sensitivity to moisture allows for the easy disassembly of parts, a critical benefit in antique furniture restoration and the repair of musical instruments.

This is my first time using hide glue and while this may not be “old school” hide glue, I really like it. It’s not as runny and messy as PVA glue, has a good tack and sets up in good time. As long as my projects aren’t going to be exposed to water, I’ll be using this glue. Great stuff. Good job Titebond.

I am refinishing a table I inherited that is at least 100 years old. I wanted to make sure I did it right, so I did some research when the top had a section sagging and needed some glue. My research found that old pieces were often done with hide glue. It also seems if a piece is done with hide glue originally, then some of the new glues of today will not bond to it. I didn't want to figure out how to remove the old glue, so I decided to try the titebond. It worked beautifully! Also, if you make a mistake with hide glue and need to reposition your piece, hide glue is suppose to be easier to "unstick". Fortunately, I was careful and did not have to test this theory out, but was glad to know that I couldn't ruin the table with this glue. If you have an old piece you want to refurbish, I recommend researching hide glue online and seeing if it will work for you. I am glad I found it!

This was a bit harder to use than I had expected, as it was less viscous (more drippy) than expected. I used it for rather small detailing, but due to the viscosity, it made a bit of a mess. However, after cleaning up with water and letting it dry where it was supposed to, it held very well and still holds to this day, after quite a lot of use, over a month later.

Exactly as described, works well with hammering veneer. Adheres in about 10 mins, remains water soluble even when dried.

Goede bottenlijm die makkelijk te gebruiken is omdat deze niet opgewarmd hoeft te worden. Let wel op dat je het op kamertemperatuur bewaard want anders verliest de lijm zijn viscositeit.

The glue seems to hold very well.It is very handy to have ready to use glue without having to heat.

This s a great addition to Titebond's glue family. I use a number of their other products for general wood working and construction. I also have a heated Glue-Pot and have used real Hide glue. The real stuff is great.. but... smelly, and short lived (meaning you can't keep it long after you mix up a load - may be a week or so at best. It can also be a bit tricky to use. But it has great strength and has the nice property that parts can be parted with judicial use of heat. Whereas the Titebond product is so much more useful in use. Has a relatively long open time, and working time allowing more positioning time in glue-ups! That is just super for furniture making. It too can be released with heat. It too is smelly, but much less so unless you really tick it up your nose! Please don't do that... It is not waterproof so not for boat builders unless you have a suicidal/homicidal streak. Best part... does not stain the wood, and it works very well with stains. Thus for restorers and furniture makers its great. I just received another two bottles of this stuff, and will get through it by mid next year I guess with the projects on hand. I have been successfully using it since its launch a few years back. Hope this review encourages you to reach out and try it. I don't think you will regret it. One last thing, important, don't use for structural work. The glue has a lower retention strength compared to the popular yellow carpenters glue, and as noted can be released with heat and is not waterproof! Recommended for the right applications!

I've given up on using PVA glues (white and yellow wood glues) for woodworking unless I need something waterproof. I love using liquid hide glue. It it tacks quickly, has a long working time (30-45 minutes), it's reversible with warm water, and it doesn't interfere with finishing if you miss cleaning some up. Put the bottle in some warm water to thin it out and it spreads into tight spaces beautifully.If I had to find a quibble with this glue, it'd be the shelf life - it lasts only about a year, maybe two. That isn't a problem for me though, since I don't stock up on it - only what I need for use in the next few months. In general, if the glue is still liquid in the bottle, it's likely still usable, but may take more time to set up.Once it does set up it takes time to fully cure. I leave it overnight or for 24 hours before working with the pieces. If you read the labels on PVA glues, you'll see they reach a full cure in 24 hours as well, so that's not a big deal with the liquid hide glue in my mind. Do remember though, this is a water soluble glue, so it's not good for outdoor applications or where it will be subjected to frequent heat and moisture. I also understand hide glue doesn't work in the tropics (too much heat and humidity).I've heard people complain that this glue doesn't have as high a tensile strength as PVA glues. Um, yeah, maybe, or maybe not. But when was the last time you subjected a piece of furniture to X thousand pounds of stress on one of its joints? Hmmm? And if that piece of furniture IS subjected to those kinds of forces, I'd say you've got bigger problems on your hands than potential glue failure. Look, antique furniture was made with hide glue and some of those pieces are hundreds of years old. I'd say that's a fair testament to the glue's ability to do the job.The most difficult part in working with this glue? Finding it. Unless you have a woodworking specialty store near you, it's hit or miss that a store carries this glue. Of the 3 local hardware stores near me, only 1 carries TB Liquid Hide glue. And forget the big box stores - I don't think they even know it exists.
