TBIII is more water resistant but has a shorter working time.    Pat

Thanks Pat,   I am planning on putting a linen backing on a hickory board bow.   Should I use Titebond II or Titebond III?

Thanks,

Paul

I've used both both with good results but 3 is more water resistant.

 Manny,No it sets up quicker. Something I do is glue the backing on with TB2.It gives you more time to smooth things out.Then I come back after it dries and put a coat of TB3 on top of it.
