This video is sponsored by Titebond. They are an ongoing sponsor of The Wood Whisperer and they supply me with glue for my projects. Titebond is a trusted name in the industry and you can always count on the quality of their products. While this video focuses on the Titebond brand, it is really meant to be a general overview of the common glue types you might come across and when to use them. I hope you find it useful.
I put together spreadsheet showing the most common attributes of the various Titebond glues. I made it myself so it might not be 100% complete and there may be a typo or two, but it should still work for quick reference. Check it out: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...

Here's a link to the spreadsheet I made up for quick reference: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/128UnQ0Wt_Fx2icOg2SlUkXEn2G0nOJ_QD7MCnJCLgWM/edit?usp=sharing
Titebond also has "Titebond Melomine".
you probably dont care but does someone know a trick to get back into an instagram account..?
I was dumb lost the password. I appreciate any tricks you can give me
@Toby Ezra Instablaster =)
@Mario Oliver thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process now.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Mario Oliver it did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thank you so much, you really help me out :D
Why did I just watch a 20 minute video on glue? Why did I enjoy it greatly? These are some of life's many unanswered questions. But I thank you for making it. I look forward to the next.
Could be worse.......a video on paint drying!
@@paulhargreaves1497 don’t threaten me with a good time
I'm just getting into woodworking, so I'm going to adhere to your advice
Just stick to it ;).
How does this only have 6 likes
I suppose it just didn’t cure properly
Build a door, then show yourself out
Can't go wrong with just advice and you'll also build some depth of skills as time goes on, good luck
This is exactly the answer I was looking for on Friday Live a couple weeks ago. That chart is perfect! Thanks for the in depth look into glues! Excellent video!!!
Wow I can't tell you how happy I am that you made this video. I've been wondering for a while now what the differences are in all of these. Thank you so much for the chart too. I am keeping it!
Mark, incredibly comprehensive video (as usual). Well worth the entire 18+ mins and to keep watching beyond the spoiler alert. Thank you. plus 1 on Titebond III for me.
I have watched a lot of videos on a lot of wood working projects and I must say this was the clearest video presentation I think I've ever seen. Thanks.
Thanks Mark. Always appreciate your efforts in helping us learn to be better
super cool thanks! I always use Titebond 3 but by accident though when i was starting out i just figured "3 is more powerful than 1 or 2 I will go with that one"
I wanted to take the time to thank you for this glue video. You answered questions I didn't know I even had, and confirmed a few things I had suspected.
I watched your video while waiting for glue to dry on my cabinet doors. :)
And then realized you used the wrong glue. 😂
Great intro and insight into the Titebond glue collection. You have provided me with the best all rounder information i needed desperately. You speak clearly and introduced all aspects of each type of glue with working examples at hand. I shall look no further...THANK YOU !!
Thank you for this! Incredibly helpful for a new woodworker.
I dont even care how sponsored this is. Amazingly handy.
I watched your video just before a massive walnut table top glue up and thank goodness! Was going to use my standby Titebond II but your info on color and working time and ran right out and got some Titebond III. thank you so much!
Excellent summary Mark , thanks for the SpreadSheet too i know you are a Tite bond Sponsored guy now but one thing i wanted to add about them Is i used their products professionally for over 20 years and they were always very helpful as well as standing behind their products so much that Tite Bond products were the only Wood Glues we used With the only exception of a few other specialty products that other companies produced and Tite bond did not at that time
Thank you Marc, that was very informative. My favorite glue is Titebond No-Run No-Drip, comes clear when completely set. The glue set pretty fast (3 mins). I find it perfect for simple assembly or multi-part assembly.
This is great. I am going to have to remember this so I can go back and reference it. The spreadsheet looks super handy.
Great reference guide. Glue selection is important, so I think it's really helpful to know the pros and cons of the glues I choose. Especially after investing time and money in a project leading up to assembly!
After a decade plus of TWW, I thought I knew everything about glue. Thanks for the continued education!
Love this video.For the first time there isn't a video that says to use Titebound 3 only for cutting boards. I mean if you have lots sponsors and can spend the extra money go for. Always love the honest content!!
Just come across your UA-cam channel over here in the UK and would just like to say that you are very good at your job and your videos are a pleasure to watch. Thanks for putting the time and effort in.
BEST VIDEO EVER! I was at home depot the other day and bought type 2 cause price. This video was really helpful to know the differences. Should have got type 3
Thank you for the very thorough video on the different glues. Very informative. Best one on wood glue that I have watched. Thank you!
Over time, I've learned to just suck it up, and clean both the lid and the snap-close top. Saves time later as wet glue simply, quickly, rinses off the lid. Thanks for the run-down and review.
Thanks for this video! I like to add two products I am using a lot (no, I am not the manufacturer ;)): Bison (or Griffon, its the same) wood max and wood max express (in Dutch "hout max"). Great when there is some sort of a gap and perfect for constructive jobs. Once you used this type of glue, you never go back to polyurethane glue. Extremely strong and no airbubbles like the pu (bad for strength) You might want to check/test this out. Keep up the good work, like your video's. John, the Netherlands.
Man I wanna get my hands on some of that dark glue! I’d have to order it as stores locally only carry original, II and III. I always used Titebond II for everything. I’ve definitely noticed temperature has a lot to do with dry time. In the Texas summer, I can finish projects very quickly, glue ups are almost totally dry in 30 minutes or less, in the winter, I’ve had even small glue ups take 4 hours or more to dry up enough to keep working.
I've started using home made hide glue for most of my interior projects, it’s got a pretty good history and it’s undoable. After that it’s using a Titebond III, epoxy or CA glue. However, I’m still very much a learner and I'll probably give a different answer next week but it is good fun making your own glue.
An excellent explanation of the different glues that Titebond sells. They have been my go to glue for many years. I always get great results with their products. Thanks for answering my question too. (Don Bullock)
Great review, TY. I use it all the time. Always wondered about shelf life. I've had old stuff (TB) get thin.
This is a great video ! I am an intermediate woodworker and have learned from this , Thank you for sharing !!
Great video!!! We always have a lot of glue questions at Woodcraft and this will be a great video to point them towards (for those who need a little extra info).
Thanks for the tips!
I can attest to the Titebond III dark glue line in maple. I tried Titebond Translucent in the same situation and it was invisible.
Great stuff...
This is SUPER helpful, especially the color test. I've been using TB Translucent
Thanks for the info. I've had Titebond glue for over a decade, and in a shot that in summer hits 90 degrees and it is still good. Titebond III only lasted a year in the shop before it got lumpy (but, I bought it off of ebay, so no telling how long it was where it was before I bought it.)
Excellent presentation of glue and glue properties. Answered all my questions. Thank you!!
I was just wondering about this the other day, thanks for doing the research for me on the other kinds of glue!
Really useful thank you, with good read across for non-Titebond products too.
Such a great resource. Dispelled some common misconceptions I frequently see. People assume for a cutting board it has to be 3 for example. Or people just use 3 for everything. I'm on a tight budget so I save money wherever I can without sacrificing the integrity of the piece. If I can avoid the more expensive TB3... I definitely will. Dying the color was new to me though. Love that tip
Unless whatever you are working on is going to sit outside in the rain/snow the Titebond 1 will work just fine...maybe Titebond 2 if you would be eating off whatever you are making but TB3 is really only needed if your project will spend its whole life outside in the weather...and at that point you may want to switch to the Titebond Silicone LOL.
Great video as always. Here's what Titebond's Bob Benke told me a few years ago re: their cryptic EXP. date code & some other neat bits of info. My local Ace hard ware had lots of Titebond on sale, but decoding their date codes, I realized they were all 1-4 years old bottles:
TITEBOND / FRANKLIN INTERNATIONAL
Date code: ex A41201XX:
A= American / USA-made
4= 2014
01= DEC 01
XX= BATCH# XX
SHELF LIFE: Good TWO years min., but up to FOUR or more; Refrigerated will last 10 years!
Titebond II as waterproof, but Titebond III can tolerate 180F and above (beyond boiling/dishwasher)
Titebond III gels when bad, looks like cottage cheese; if it comes out and looks creamy, it's good; can add 5% water if it gets thick.
Great info, thanks! I used gorilla brand poly glue once to glue 1x2 wood strips to the roof of an aluminum shed in a colder(about 10-15 Celcius) environment. After it cured, it held so well I could grab just the wood strip and it held my body weight just fine. Love the poly glue for tricky situations.
Its great to fill in gaps too as it expands unlike other types of glue. The only issue is it can be a little more messy to clean up and don't get it on anything you don't want that stuff stuck to.
Just found this video while researching Titebond Hide Glue. Very good video. And yes… re-elect Mayor Goldie Wilson! LOL
Well done and very informative I tend to use titebond 3 by the gal and always have good results. Had big glue up today, mixed glue and sawdust to fill up some jig Ole holes. Doweled is about 20 holes also. Thank you al mydland
Excelente información de cada uno de los tipos de adhesivo TiteBond. En general solo uno el Ultimate III, pero a veces uso el No-run, No-drip.
Cuando pasa el tiempo y se pone grumoso, se puede agregar hasta un 5% de agua limpia, de preferencia caliente. Lo mismo al limpiar la boquilla, agua caliente funciona mejor.
Gracias por toda la información, un video ameno.
Un saludo desde Guatemala.
1 and 2 work for me....never fails...just the best.
I use Titebond 1, very rarely 2. Regardless what I buy though it goes bad before I use all of it anyways LOL. I don't do much in the way of gluing stuff together that goes outside, so the Titebond 1 works fine....although that hide glue may be something to keep around for repairing furniture, never really thought about being able to take it apart by using hide glue without causing more damage to the furniture.
This was incredibly informative! Thanks very much Mark.
Excellent as usual! BTW, I use a toothpick to clean out the nozzle head --- less likely to damage the tip than a slotted screwdriver.
I learned so much from you. You are explaining everything very well. Thank you and God bless you! 🙏
Great video Marc. Tons of useful information! Thanks for sharing 👍
Something I discovered last winter (in SE Alaska), Titebond 1 will partially solidify in the cold and can't be salvaged (gets chunky for lack of a better term). Titebond 2 survived the winter in my shed with no problems. Slightly longer set time, but I generally wrap up for the night when I get to a glue-up, so not a big deal for me
So much information just to help us , it’s much appreciated, thanks.
I make wood boxes and other wood accessories for tabletop games, and the two Titebond glues I currently use are Titebond II Extend, and Titebond Translucent (which you didn't address). My thoughts and observations re: my experience vs. your video:
1) I find both Titebond II Extend and Titebond Translucent dry pretty translucent. Since I'm making boxes with lots of finger joints and tight spaces where it's hard to clean up squeeze out, that's important to me.
2) I find both these glues do a fine enough job adhering to pre-shellacked wood, which I do when customers order their products with shellac inside and out since it's too difficult to get shellac into some of the small nooks & crannies of some of my organizing boxes and certainly too tight to sand those small spaces afterward. Now maybe that's because I'm generous with the glue and fastidious with my clamp up, but I figured I should share.
3) Titebond Translucent is quite thick and viscous. Not sure it's quite as much so as Quick & Thick (bought a bottle once but never got around to using it on a project) but far thicker than the Titebond II Extend. That said, they both dry about the same translucent color.
4) The Extend glues can result in a weird red staining reaction when finished afterward with amber shellac. For products where customers order exterior shellac finishing only, I apply the shellac after assembly. As I said above, I use Titebond II Extend where I need both unobtrusive squeeze out AND long open time. If some of that nearly invisible glue got smudged onto another surface of the wood and I didn't notice it, it can make itself known when I apply amber shellac. Apparently the amber shellac can react with the chemical used to slow the setting of the Extend glues and turn a reddish color. (Another reason to pre-finish the wood when I need to get tight difficult-to-sand spots shellacked). I need to thoroughly sand any surfaces that may have un-seen glue smudges before applying the shellac or else I might find myself sanding a partially finished surface back to bare wood and starting over.
5) Also, for precision application on small fingers and tenons (I usually use 3mm Baltic birch) I use a set of these with my Titebond glues: www.rockler.com/workshop-glue-injector-3-pack. For less precision application, I use this: www.rockler.com/glu-bot-glue-bottle-or-babe-bot-glue-bottle
Thanks for the video.
Great information. The only thing I have to say is that glue bot didn't work for me, used it once, next time I went to use it the red screw on cap crumbled to pieces :(. I just keep the glue in the original bottles now, it goes bad long before I use the whole bottle anyhow and lost the glue that was in that glue bot as well so I can't see where I'd spend the money on anther glue bot after having one with crumbling caps.
What a fantastic video, I was glued to my screen!
For people new to this: worth saying too that polyurethane is not gap filling, even though it foams up. The foam will fill the gap, but has no strength. If you use clamps then it works a treat.
Wow... this was awesome! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Very impressive video.
Excellent Video and thank you for taking the time to put it together
Great video. I would like to see you do one about clamping pressure required. I see videos where the builder uses an extreme number of clamps and some that just shoot a few pin nails and set it aside to dry.
Excellent! That cleared up a bunch of questions for me. Thanks!
Great video covering the basics. One thing to note on the strength is that the strength listed is the strength needed to pull the parts away from each other in opposing directions. It’s not necessarily shear strength. I remember reading a post by someone who was supposedly a chemist that titebond original actually has more shear strength than titebond III. I don’t have anyway to confirm, but intuitively it made sense though as usually stronger things are more brittle and thus would be worse in shear. Likely the difference is not enough to matter anyways even if they are a 1000-2000lbs different as long as it’s greater than the wood. Just thought it was an interesting bit of info.
This Is great guide. For someone that always just uses pva glue I now understand why people use different types
I’m a TBII guy. Tried the others. Like 2 the best.
I am a decoy carver and use the glue to laminate my decoy blocks and glue heads up. TB 2 just seems to hold up better for me in those applications
The best info video on wood glue, informative and straight to the point!!!!
Thanks a lot men, I had to subscribe just watching for a minute and my first time on your youtube channel. Very elaborate explanation
Incredibly helpful. Thanks!
Love the green bottle. Bought way to much of the blue stuff. Never used the red stuff.
This was great! Lots of good info here, thank you.
Here I thought I was watching a video about woodworking glues...instead I got a very long campaign commercial for "Goldie Wilson." HELLO, McFly!!!!
Seriously though great information, thanks Marc.
Nice job Mark. Very thorough.
Genial, me queda muchísimo mas claro el tema de las diferencias entre los pegantes. De verdad muchas gracias.
Great review of Titebond products!
A great advertisement for Titebond products
Also another helpful tip about hide glue is it will cure and adhere to itself where as pva's not so much. This is a great advantage to anybody like myself who is also a hobby luthier.
Fast, thorough, love it. Subscribed.
Titebond III My go to glue for years. Good information
Thank you for this video Spags!
Tons of good solid information, thank you
Awesome info. Thanks Marc!
Thanks for the info Marc! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
This was incredibly helpful. Thanks!
Love the info, and you're easy on the eyes as well
I always bump the bottle on the bench then squeeze it and let the air suck in any glue that remains on the tip then close the top. Otherwise you can end up with glue in the gap between the lid and the spout. I do the same thing with the "super-glue" stuff to keep a good tip on the glue bottle. Guess you could say I burp the bottle. :)
Great advice. And of course with polyurethane glue, you want to do the opposite - get all air _out_ of the tip, so as to prevent it curing.
I notice redwood reacts with Titebond III. The purple stains seem to penetrate the wood fibers. Thanks for the reminder about polyurethane being waterproof. I will try that next time I’m making an outdoor piece from redwood.
I'm a big fan of the polyurethane glue, it's become my go-to glue. I don't see the foaming squeeze out as a disadvantage; it's actually one of the reasons I like it. I just take my five-in-one to the foam, then use a card scraper to remove whatever's left.
Urethane seems to me me to have a low shelf life of all
Great explanation. Thank you for sharing your experience.
You are a great teacher. Thanks.
You didn’t mention Titebond Melmine, it’s really good for sticking non pours surfaces to wood without foaming.
Love you, Mark... What a clear and informative video. Learnt a lot here. Thnks friend 👌👍
Thanks so much for teaching us.
Can we talk about the Deadpool figure you have hanging on the wall in the background? Lol.... Great video! Thanks!
Nice and informative video. I date my glues and finishes so I can keep better track of them.
Date them when you buy them, or first open them? Great idea.
William Todd when I buy them. If I don’t open them soon then I will date them when I open. After wasting a lot of glue I buy them in small containers unless I’m doing a big job.
Really nice video- I learned a lot. One tip.. to keep the glue cap clean all you need do is to borrow your wife's water jet tooth cleaner (Water-Pik). Works super well especially if you let your glue bottle sit for some time between projects.
I have had glue on the self over ten years and still works great! 😁😁👍👍
A very informative video thank you for posting it.
I bought this 1Kg glue more than 1 year ago and due to space issues and problems in the family I couldn't use it and it was kept for a long time! Now I went to use it and noticed the formation of several lumps, balls that fall apart when squeezed, it's not that pasty appearance! I did a test on 2 slats of hardwood 1.5 cm high and the glue continued to stick, even if I sawed off the glued slat halfway through, the glue remained!
Thank you for this interesting video. I live in Italy, here we mostly use vinilic glue, it's called Vinavil, and the price is 5€ for 1kg. I am using titebond III and I think I'll never get back to vinilic! The only problem? Here one bottle costs 30€!!!
This was extremely helpful!
Very informative video !! Thank you for making this video
Very informative and helpful!
What a great video. Thanks!!
Excellent video. Excellent shirt!
Thanks for the video Mark. Does Titebond 3 dry hard like Titbond Original? In the past I've found the whiter wood glues don't get as stiff, so they don't sand as well. They can be a bit gummy. Titebond Original is my go to, but I'd rather be using Titebond 3 for the open time.
