Black AR glue
Posted: Wed Jun 26, 2019 12:35 am
In my wife's picture framing business, we have started using an AR glue from one supplier that is grey when wet, but dries black. It's handy when working with black frames, of course. I used it on my first two builds when gluing white styrene rod as fingerboard side dots on EIR fingerboards. It occurs to me it might also be useful on ebony (which I am using for headplate on number 3). The brand is Maxim, produced by a company called KoolTack that makes foam core for reversible dry mounting: http://www.kooltack.com/our-products/ad ... -wood-glue This glue is strong and works fast (good for framing.)
If you are looking for it, you might be able to get a local frame shop to order it in for you (might have to order 16 oz. quantities). Wood dust mixed with epoxy or white AR works, but the black might be good in some situations. They warn that it can stain lighter woods. Couple of photos below. Bruce W.
