Quick setting/Short open time PVA Glue
I have undertaken a search here on the forum and on google.
I am aware that there is a product by titebond called " Quixk and Thick" which has a short open time, however it is not sold in the 3.78l bottle.
I currently use Titebond 2 and happy with the resukts just would like acshort open time PVA glue, and ideas?

Thanks for the reply, that 9ne they recommend a clamping time of between 2 and 3 hours.
I went and ordered a 8.xx litre of Titebond, I know it works, until something more appropriate comes along I'll stick with it.
Thanks for your input
Regards Tony

You can buy thick Super glue. Some people use a combination of PVA & super glue by putting a few dabs of superglue in the joint then adding PVA to the rest of the joint. The Super glue goes off quickly holding the joint together.

I'm far from being a glue expert, but I suspect there'd be a trade-off for the shorter open time; probably in joint strength.
A shorter curing time means less time, while polymerising, to form long interlocking chains. To a lesser degree, it'll also reduce any penetration time into the timbers on which it can penetrate. (Admittedly this is only a minor factor but still...)
So, while it'd be nice to use on small pieces for a quick build it'd probably be a step backwards - from TB2 - when it comes to larger pieces or joints where strength matters.
For small medallions and similar non-strength critical decorations I tend to use Chris's "dab of CA" method.

I exclusively use Titebond III and find it is more than fast enought for most applications, It has pretty short open time in hot dry weather, less so in damp colder winters.
