As a Woodworker and Homeowner, I always love to try new things. After researching a product via the internet or sometimes just hearing someone talk about how good a product is, I feel the need to try a product out and see for myself. It seems that the ...

Pros: Fixed everything I threw at it. Stands up to it's name, and slogan.
Cons: People may use too much glue, use with caution!

I've seen really neat commercials on gorrilla glue. One that sticks out was the dinosaur bones that claimed "put together by Gorilla Glue" -Worlds strongest glue. Even though the small print claimed otherwise, I found this advertising to be extremely ...

Pros: Waterproof joints, strong as its namesake
Cons: Cost, cleanup

When this new glue hit the home market it was an instant sensation. It was touted to work indoors or outdoors, to be “The strongest glue on planet earth,” and to stick any two things together. The fact that Gorilla Glue is still a ...

Pros: Glues well and great for inside and outside work.
Cons: Must use solvents for clean-up

I've always used Elmers Wood Glue as my chief adhesive along with a variety of others for specific materials and jobs. A few years back Gorilla Glue made a big splash on the market with its descriptive name and big time claims. Even so, I never ...

Pros: Excellent strong all purpose glue 100% tough
Cons: None

I do a lot of work with wood, wooden chairs, tables, cabinets, and other items. I was flipping through a magazine one day and saw an ad for Gorilla Glue. I read a bit and was wowed. I told Hubby about it so he would add it to his shopping list when it ...

Pros: Bonds easily, works on a wide variety of materials.
Cons: Expensive, if used improperly it can be messy

I am not the most creative person, but I could easily describe myself as one of the most clumsiest people at times. Not that I break everything I touch but I have chipped or cracked a few knick knacks in my time. I also like to consider myself as a ...

Pros: can be used on numerous things, expands, 100% waterproof
Cons: smell, stains skin and clothes, need to be careful with it

I have a chair that has been passed down from my great, great, great, grandmother to myself by way of my aunt and I love it. When we moved in July the movers completely broke one of the arms in two. I have taken it to three different furniture repair ...

Cons: Foams up, making it difficult to work with. Clamping necessary.

Pros: Glues some items well, such as wood, material, foam.
Cons: Does not glue most items well. Very expensive.

Review of Gorilla Glue (November 21, 2006) I first bought Gorilla Glue at the Home Depot about a year ago. At the time, I was repairing some furniture in my shop and I needed a strong glue to glue a wooden leg that split in a bad spot. I’ve used all ...

Pros: Expands so it does what other glues can't. Extremely strong bond.
Cons: Strong fumes, don't over apply!

My husband calls me a handy man. Indeed, it does seem that I will fix most broken items around our home, and hubby always appreciates that. It means less "honey do" items on his list, which as far as he is concerned is always a good thing. I had ...

Pros: My goodness this stuff really works!
Cons: doesn't dry clear, follow directions OR ELSE..

Gorilla Glue Came to my rescue two times this week. The first time was when the plastic window came loose out of my dishwashers door. I have one of those cheapy above the counter dish washers. The second time was earlier today. My mother gave me a ...

Cons: A bit pricey, hard to remove from skin, tends to cure in bottle at times

While reading up about the different wood glues, I was constantly stumbling upon information about an adhesive known as polyurethane glue. It was said to be very strong and hard to remove from any surface. The whole thing about it foaming also interested ...

Pros: The Toughest Glue on Planet Earth!!! Works on Just About Everything!!!
Cons: Can't find larger containers of the stuff. Can harden if not sealed tight. Expensive.

WHY GORILLA GLUE? I just happened to see this with the other glue products one day about a little over a year ago At Home Depot. I didn't think much of it, but I did notice that it was something very new. So I thought to myself: " Maybe I'll buy some ...

Pros: Very strong and versitile
Cons: Foams like crazy, dries slowly

This glue does not monkey around! The name certainly caught my attention and I read the label wondering if it was rally any good. No doubt you're wondering how it compares to the top name products that most folks reach for when they face a minor ...

Pros: Waterproof - like all polyurethane glues.
Cons: Very expensive, difficult to apply, difficult to clean.

I never would have guessed that so much could be written about glue - a seemingly quiet, discrete substance that I use virtually every day. I suppose that much of the verbiage in other reviews comes from the tradition here at epinions.com that longer ...
