Gorilla Glue?

[TheGreatMonkey 10+ year member]

I saw some of this stuff at my hardware store today and picked a 4 oz bottle. The people working there, had no idea how well it worked since they just brought it in. So I was wondering, is this stuff any good? It will be used to make my sub boxes. I only paid $5 for it.

stuff is great for plywood and other wood. great for cutting board just not mdf. maybe try using the search feature of this forum and seeing over9000 other threads on this

it's alright stuff but not ideal for enclosure bonding. the stuff when applied properly per directions will cause the glue to "bubble" up and expand. it is pretty strong stuff yes, but you are much better off using Titebond II.

Gorilla glue itself is bad I would imagine. But Gorilla now makes Gorilla Wood Glue, is that what we're talking about here or the original stuff?

It was only $5 then. So no big loss then.

I have used it to make a few boxes. If you put 45's in and you dont have a table saw it works great imo.

Patron saint of sticking MDF together. Gorilla glue foams up, not the best for MDF, I dont use it and I dont know anyone who does.
