Gorilla also found a way to lower the minimum ambient temperature that is necessary to achieve a good bond to 50-degrees. You do have to let Gorilla® Wood Glue dry overnight for the maximum bond but in most cases you can remove the clamps in just 20-minutes and it develops roughly 80% of its total bond strength in just 1 to 2 hours! That means you can move projects along more quickly without weakening the glue joints. Gorilla® Wood Glue is a cross-linked polyvinyl acetate (PVA) that has been designed to produce higher than normal bond strength with a shorter clamp time.
Not surprisingly this new type of woodworking glue is tough and easy to work with. Now those same people have taken a fresh look at the regular woodworking glues we use and they came up with Gorilla® Wood Glue. I liked the relatively long open time for applying it to complicated joints like dovetails and the near bulletproof strength when cured. I had the opportunity to try out the original Gorilla (polyurethane) Glue several years ago and have used it myself ever since. Gorilla® Wood Glue Strong, quick and American Made Besides the price and performance of this new wood glue the fact that it is Made in America makes it even more attractive! It was not a big surprise to hear the the Gorilla Glue folks had come up with their own wood glue.
