For those of you who use gorilla glut for your tip overlays on glass bows, do you just put the glue on one surface or both like smooth-on.
I like smooth-on for my overlay to glass bond then the gorilla glue for the next layers.
Just not sure if I should hit both surfaces or not.
Thanks

If you mean the Gorilla Super Glue (impact tough formula), I only put the glue on one surface and then clamp.
I don't think the regular Gorilla (the expanding stuff) glue will work at all.
Yes the Impact stuff (sorry)
I wet both surfaces. (http://i596.photobucket.com/albums/tt46/Robertfishes/gorillaglue1.jpg)
glue both surfaces--then wipe the squeeze out with a quick swipe of my finger--don't clamp it too hard-i like spring clamps
I use multiple thin pieces of material and I also spring clamps.. with saran wrap to keep glue off of clamps
OK guy's thanks a lot......
for those of you that wipe super glue with your fingers...to remove it try rubbing the dry glue with a pumice stick under running water. In case you don't know, you get a pumice stick in the toilet cleaning dept at walmart.
Also be sure to ruff up your glue surfaces with at least 60 grit. I wet both surfaces. I clamp pretty tight and have had no problems. GG gives you a bit more time to get things lined up. Wipe the excess and shoot both edges with accelorator.

This is exactly what I do. No problems yet
