Titebond Geniune Hide Glue

Titebond Genuine Hide Glue is the first hide glue to be offered in a liquid, ready-to-use form. It requires no mixing, heating or stirring. Professional woodworkers use Titebond Genuine Hide Glue for its long assembly time, exceptional strength and unique crackling effect on wood. Titebond Genuine Hide Glue provides superior creep-resistance, offers excellent sandability and is unaffected by finishes. Its sensitivity to moisture allows for easy disassembly of parts, a critical benefit in antique restoration or the repair of musical instruments.
