Titebond Liquid Hide Glue: Go Back To Woodworking's Roots

Restoration work is one of the most rewarding practices that a woodworker can take up. Whether you're repairing an antique piece of furniture or simply bringing new life to a once underwhelming hand-me-down, Titebond Liquid Hide Glue can help you get the results you're after. Animal hide glue is favored by restorers for its ability to be deconstructed or added to after drying simply by applying a heat source. This makes it easy to take apart, repair, and reassemble fine antique furiture constructed with hide glues. Titebond Liquid Hide Glue is also a great product for creating a crackled finish on painted pieces. Just apply your base color paint, add a layer of Titebond Liquid Hide glue, allow it to cure, and then paint on your top layer. In minutes the top layer crackles away as it dries, creating a wonderfully aged look, even on modern pieces.

Normal hide glues come in solid pellets and must be melted down before use. Titebond Liquid Hide Glue is the only solution that starts out in a liquid state, so it's ready to go the minute you open the bottle. No mixing, heating, or stirring required, and the assembly time is exceptionally long, so there's no need to rush when applying before your clamping process. It is easily sandable, doesn't affect existing wood finishes, and squeeze up can be cleaned with a damp rag.
