You're probably right, I was just thinking about the consequences of any residual is all.

It was just a guess. However, down here where the humidity frequently is 90% or higher, I'm willing to try anything to extend the lifetime a little. Open a bottle once and the next time I try to use it, the top of the glue is hard - and I try to keep the exposure to an absolute minimum by capping as soon as it's applied.

BTW, I prefer ProBond too. I seems to be a little less viscous than Gorilla PU and spreads more easily.

If only it came in Ambroid tubes with no air required to displace material used.

Hmm..

Maybe the trick is to buy a can of nitrogen (for gas blanketing wine) from the liquor store, then purge and blanket the air space with that. [sm=50_50.gif]

Save one bottle of adhesive from an early demise and that would pretty much pay off.
