Default CA debonder question

After using CA debonder to debond 2 pieces of incorrectly glued wood, may the piece be CA'd back together or will the debonder remain in the wood not allowing the glue to cure? Thanks,Todd

I can't tell you difinitively, but I have used debonder to seperate wood and then reglued it with success. I don't know if it was as strong as the original bond, but I haven't had any problems.

I did clean the debonder off real well with water & let the wood dry thoroughly before re-gluing.

It will work fine. The debonder will evaporate an no longer be effective.

You can use straight acetone, and that evaporates very well. You can get a gallon can at Ace for cheap compared to what the zap brand costs.

I believe he is referring to pure nitromethane.

It really is a great CA debonder.

And when mixed with a little tonic water, well........
