Title: glues
Post by: hntr on June 30, 2009, 06:58:47 pm

What is the best glue for Boo backed Hickory?  I was thinking EA 40 URAC 185 or Titebond III.  I have the Titebond III already and am leery to use it for glueing on a backing because I don't think it is strong enough to glue in some reflex. 

Anyone use the titebond III for reflex deflex bows?

TB 3 will work just fine as will Urac as will Resorcinol and others, with TB3 don't grove the surfaces as it isn't a gap filler
keep it flat and smooth and clean. Good Luck eh :)

Just as Dana said, I have never had a failure due to TB. Urac works great too, but TB is less hassle. Now algebra in high school, that was a different matter. :-[
