In the s, anti-gelling agents were added to hide glue and the result was products that could stay liquid at room temperatures and achieve a slower set time but continue to be totally reversible.

A point to be made here is that these additives all reduce the strength of hide glue. But that is not a critical issue due to the fact that liquid hide glue, although slightly weaker than hot hide glue, is still stronger than the wood itself. Jump ahead some 80 years and today we have two primary manufacturers of liquid hide glue. These glues have similar working properties and both provide sound a glue joint for furniture conservation or construction.

Old Brown Glue is a mixture of animal collagen and urea with no other additives. Titebond Liquid Hide Wood Glue lists cyanoguanidine used in the manufacture of plastics and pharmaceuticals and ammonium thiocyanate used chiefly as a herbicide and in textile printing. Old Brown Glue appears opaque or cloudy when squeezed from the bottle, and getting it from the bottle is no easy task when the glue is at room temperature.

Additives to the glues make the Titebond product left transparent while the Old Brown Glue is nearly opaque. Editor Christopher Schwarz, an ardent user of Old Brown, simply deposits the bottle into a pail of hot tap water. After a few minutes, the glue is ready to use. Titebond liquid hide glue, when dispensed from the bottle, is very clear, almost transparent. How will your nose react to these glues? We often hear woodworkers disparage the smell of hot hide glue.

But does the liquid version of this smelly adhesive possess the same attributes? We blindly tested the smell of the two glues within the Woodworking Magazine shop. What we discovered was a landslide winner — if you can call it a winner. Every member of the staff chose the Old Brown as the smelliest. Interestingly, after we finished our non-scientific poll, we found that there was a tie in the race for the most-smelly glue. Non-woodworkers, for the most part, preferred the Old Brown smell and found the Titebond glue more offensive.

More Interesting Comparisons A rub joint, wherein you add glue to two pieces of wood and rub them together until the glue achieves its initial tack, is a benefit of hot hide glue. So, we tested the initial tack with the two glues. The Titebond product had virtually no perceivable tack. When the Old Brown product was rubbed, you could immediately feel a tack in the process. No, there was not the same tack as with hot hide glue, but you could feel a slight grab as the two pieces were joined.

Score one for Old Brown. However, we remembered that the Old Brown glue was heated and wondered if that preliminary tack was due to the glue gelling as it cooled. To keep the test equal, we heated the Titebond glue and performed the same test. Our original findings held. The Titebond glue exhibited less tack than was found with the Old Brown Glue. The Most Important Comparisons Smell, color, transparency and initial tack are notable characteristics of these two liquid hide glues, but the important features are how the glue joint holds up and what it takes to reverse glued-up joints.
