complaints on hf glue
 
never read the reviews on the hf wood glue but others have also
complained about the bottle

if they can put the glue in a tube like a toothpaste tube they will
have a good product there for smaller jobs


still have not seen how the glue looks when using a clear coat

titebond has a yellowish look

I've always asssumed you're not supposed to see any glue or glue lines on a finished project. At least, that's the results I strive for.

Agreed. For two reasons - one being aesthetics, the other
being a visible glue line represents a weak joint (the
exception being with epoxy, where you actually do want to
see a glue line).

Apropos of the HF wood glue, judging by the Comet's comments
on it's texture and appearance, and the fact HF describes it
as "acrylic", I'm guessing it's actually adhesive for engineered
wood floors.

I looked for the MSDS for the glue (you can often get hints
of the actual manufacturer that way), but HF doesn't put them
on-line. Perhaps next time Electric Comet is in HF he can
ask for one (I beleive they are required by law to supply the
MSDS on request).

The actual manufacturer is probably the Happy-Lucky Glue Company or some
such and the only information you're likely to find that isn't from
Harbor Freight will be in Chinese.

Probably is the Happy-Lucky Glue Company. Just his luck that they
happened to get a bad batch of dissidents in that last batch the
government gave them. :(

A URL means zip. They coulda put "zombie-proof" in the URL and it
still woulda meant nada. The telling feature I see is, HF glue admits
to being an "acrylic base", while relegating other glues to
"polyurethane" based.

I tried digging down, but I flunked chemistry. 8|

I think it's more likely that the trademark holder hasn't
noticed yet, than that the glue is actually Titebond. The
only place "titebond" appears is in the URL, they don't
reference anywhere on the actual page (which says the brand
is "HFT").

Compare with their page for Gorilla Glue, which uses the
actual Gorilla Glue name and logo, and does not say the
brand is "HFT".

....snip...

Actually, a search on their website for titebond leads you to a page that
leads you to the page with titebond in the URL.

http://www.harborfreight.com/catalog...ult?q=titebond

So that means that they have associated that product with the word titebond in their search database.

I don't know if that's worth anything, I'm just tossing it out there.

Let me see if I have this straight.

1) HF uses Franklins brand name in their URL

2) Franklin has known this fer 5 yrs

3) It's not really Titebond glue

4) I'm wrong.

One possibility is HF has a business agreement with Franklin
International to buy and repackage/rebrand TBIII factory 'seconds'
and/or unsold product that was at or near expiration date.
Hence the "too thick to flow" complaints.

So that if you are actually looking for TB III a search engine will
include the HF crap. It is a redirect ploy.

Could well be. In which case they likely have some agreement,
even if just a handshake, allowing them to call it "titebond
style" or something like that.

The MSDS for "HFT" glue, if it was available, would probably
tell us the actual manufacturer. And if it was Franklin
International, we could assume it was Titebond that was in
some way out-of-spec.

You'd think that would indeed be the reason. If it was, it is an EPIC
failure because if you Google "titebond iii ultimate wood glue" or
just "titebond iii" , either with or without the quotes, I don't think
you'll see a single HF link.

Or too much trouble to go after them since the product does not say
anything about TBIII. so what if a link directs you to a different
brand product.

No but I googled Titebond iii glue and actually did see a link to a web
site that offered other adhesives but no Titebond iii.

I got this as second suggestion

http://www.caulkyourhome.com/product...ol ored_Broad

and this

http://www.mscdirect.com/products/lo...=12465 880692

and this

http://www.staples.com/Dot+Shot/dire...ro_glue:164978

Search engines will focus on all or any one word in the search
description. If you put in glue or adhesive along with titebond III you
get lots of other hits.

With adhesive instead of glue I got this at the top.

@dont-email.me:

never read the reviews on the hf wood glue but others have also
complained about the bottle

if they can put the glue in a tube like a toothpaste tube they will
have a good product there for smaller jobs


still have not seen how the glue looks when using a clear coat

titebond has a yellowish look



I was at a HF today, and out of curiousity popped the cap off the bottle.
It kinda looks like Tacky Glue, but may not be tacky. (I didn't touch the
glue.) It's in a similar bottle to Tacky Glue too.

Is the HF glue actually tacky?

Puckdropper


Almost everything at HF is tacky. ;~)


That's why they sell these...

Let me see if I have this straight.

1) HF uses Franklins brand name in their URL

2) Franklin has known this fer 5 yrs

3) It's not really Titebond glue

4) I'm wrong.

Yes, yer wrong 'bout 3)


You have of course obtained confirmation from the manufacturer of
Titebond that the glue in question is in fact Titebond III, even though
Harbor Freight claims it is "acrylic" and Titebond is not acrylic?

Yes, laddie, there is such a thing as acrylic adhesive. There are also
urethanes, silicones, urea-formaldehydes, resorcinol, epoxies,
caseinates, polysulfides, and a whole large range of others. What of
it?

HF = Acrylic Polymer = EZ WATER CLEANUP
TBIII = Acrylic Polymer = EZ WATER CLEANUP

What, you think the only kind of glue with "EZ water cleanup" is
acrylic? And you think that acrylic automatically impiies "EZ water
cleanup"? Squirt some methyl methacrylate in your eyes and see how EZ
it cleans up with water.

Look, I don't know what your area of expertise might be, but it clearly
isn't adhesives and the next dumb-ass remark you make on this thread
puts you in my killfile.

In other words you don't think, you just make noise.
