In Response To: Material: Gorilla Glue shelf life (Jay Babina )

: Gorilla Glue seems to have a shelf life once opened. Anybody have
: any way of stopping it from hardening in the bottle? Or does
: anyone know what the solvent is? Nothing seems to work.
: I guess once oxygen gets in there, it's just a matter of time.
: Lessons learned - only buy small bottles.

The same thing has happened to me several times....:( So I started using Tightbond III for waterproof applications and Tightbond I for strip building. Both have worked flawlessly for me.
