Anyone use Gorilla Glue?

[static zap]

It was the “Suspected of causing cancer”

I’ve not seen that before on an ‘everyday’ item.

That means its good stuff.
(Unlike water based glues -- Give me back my Toluene Solvent)

I think its offensive to Gorilla's..........

The forum mods have probably got shares in it.

Over-priced, over-advertised American product.
I use this stuff, for wood (obviously!), at a fraction of the price:
Polyurethane Wood Adhesive 750g 5 Minute - https://www.toolstation.com/shop/Adhesives+%26+Sealants/d180/Wood+Adhesive+%26+PVA/sd3198/Polyurethane+Wood+Adhesive+750g/p93568

That's a clever move by the Gorilla, if you got cancer from the glue they'd say that you'd been warned.

I used super glue once and in the process of sticking something back together I glued my forefinger and thumb together. Just slipped a scalpel between them gently levering it along until they were parted again.

with super glue.if you glue your fingers. just soak in warm water. might even preclude your annual bath.

Knew a man once who ended up in hospital with his feet superglued into his shoes.....still makes me chuckle to this day

thing with all these glues, you need to stick it on 'er indoors' gob whilst she's asleep. it don't stick when gob is in motion, so you have a small window of opportunity, maybe 20 minutes out of 24 hours.

If you find that you need to resort to such measures, that's shows a lack of proper training

Agree with the polyurethane, excellent stuff for exterior woodwork but like Gorilla Glue it pays to wear gloves when messing with it.

Gorilla Glue MSDS - all 11 scary pages of it

My wera Kraftform screwdrivers said on the box something about causing cancer in California and washing your hands after use....

For a bit of context, MSDS for 5% Acetic Acid. The vinegar at your local chippy is about 5% Acetic Acid, there are six more pages after this..

I think it was called Gloy glue - we always used to think it was made from boiled up bones but probably was some blend of toxic chemicals instead...!
