Hi all,
One of the windows I make is from mitre master.
As I'm sure you have guessed, all of the joints in the system are mitres, which are strengthened with chevrons.
One of the more time consuming parts of the window is cleaning up the glue after it has been joined.
Currently I'm using a polyurethane glue that expands, but takes forever to clean up.
I'm going to be making up some test corners with different glues, but wanted to make sure I had all the bases covered before I start.
What I'm really looking for is something like polyurethane, but that can be cleaned off with a wet rag just after it has been joined.
The ones I'm going to test so far will be standard exterior PVA, cascamite, and a polyurethane which doesn't expand.
Are there any other brands and types of glue I should include in these samples?
Thanks
Matt
