The case for ground hide glue is that it has been used for centuries, and good, strong, centuries-old glue joints are still in existence. The newer liquid hide glues with preservatives do not develop the strength of granular hide glues, and can fail with extended periods of high humidity.

Product Description

Video: Using Hide Glue – Pros and Cons

 

192-gram-strength hide glue boasts the following traits: It dries to a crystalline state and does not dampen or absorb string energy. Joints can be easily taken apart with warm water, heat, and some use vinegar. It can be used for sizing end grain, by using a dilute solution which will prevent subsequent starving of joints in cases where end grain is joined. Hide glue can be used in well-made, tight joints because it requires only a thin coating, whereas other glue types require a thick coating. Hide glue is transparent and can be used as a pore filler by mixing with pigments or sawdust and it sands easily.

Don't be concerned if you see very small white chalky specs in your dry glue. A small amount of zinc sulfate is added to the glue. It acts as a preservative, extending the life of your glue.
