I used Gorilla for an outdoor situation------ what a PITA!!! but
it does stick, holy cow does it ever.

The comparative tests I've seen all have the resorcinal (Gorilla
foaming) results behind the yellow glue...

Unless things have changed, Gorilla glue isn't resorcinol, its
polyurethane, not even close to resorcinol.



Yes Things have changed.

Gorilla is a BRAND name not a type of glue.

So which one is resorcinol?


None are. Resorcinol glue is typically marketed as a boat-builder's glue and
not as a woodworking product. Not so much because of its adhesive qualities
(it's _incredibly_ strong, waterproof, and solvent resistant) but because it
has a deep rich burgundy color with a very obvious glue line. It can also be a
bit brittle, as I recall.
