vaddoc Posted May 13, 2019 #2 Posted May 13, 2019 To not be confused, there is plain PVA glue which is white, dries clear and has large opening time. And there is the aliphatic PVA, which is yellow, dries not really clear and has very short opening time. Titebond original is aliphatic, non waterproof and has a really short opening time. The other ones are waterproof and offer slightly longer opening time. Not important for our purposes I use usually an aliphatic PVA (happens to be Titebond original at the time but others work the same) but when I want long opening time or no marks to show on the wood I use hardware store white PVA. mtaylor and Canute 2 Current projects: Hercules Steam Tugboat - scratch build from half model lines Completed projects: 21' Fisherman's Launch - plans by Howard Chapelle 21' Yawl Longboat - plans from the National Maritime Museum Deben 5 tonner - a Whisstock yard design 24' exploration gaff rigged ketch - a Tad Roberts design 15' knockabout sailing boat
