How to use

Preparation

1. Surfaces to be bonded must be smooth and finished to fit closely together; for dowelled or mortice and tenon joints, the clearance must be less than 0.25mm. Surfaces must also be clean, dry, and free from dust or loose material. 

Application

2. Apply an even film of interior wood glue to one of the surfaces to be bonded. 

3. In applications where greater bond strength is required, coat all surfaces. 

4. When bonding dowels or tenons, it is preferable to apply the wood adhesive to the hole or mortice so that the wet adhesive is carried into the socket when assembly takes place. 

5. Assemble the parts whilst the adhesive film is still wet.  

6. After the parts have been assembled, maintain light pressure on the bond line during the initial setting period, using equipment such as vices, jigs, clamps, or dead loads. 

How to remove

A moist cloth will remove the ‘wet’ adhesive but be careful not to spread a thin film onto nearby wood, which might later be varnished or painted. It is sometimes safer to allow the adhesive to dry, then mechanically remove the excess. 

FAQs

Why is Wood Glue Interior white when wet?

Most emulsion adhesives are white in colour due to the way they reflect light. When used under the correct conditions, EVO-STIK Wood Glue Interior dries clear or translucent.

Why is it necessary to clamp Wood Glue Interior?

Until EVO-STIK Wood Glue Interior has set, the bond has very little strength. As the adhesive dries, water evaporates and the adhesive shrinks, while the moisture may also cause the wood grain to swell. Clamping the materials gently helps keep the joint in place until the adhesive has fully set.

How long does Interior Wood Glue take to dry?

EVO-STIK Wood Glue Interior reaches full cure within 24 hours at 20°C. 2

The time taken to develop full bond strength depends on factors such as temperature, humidity, bonding pressure, substrate type, porosity and moisture content.

As a guide, beech substrates at 7°C should be clamped for at least 12 hours. At 20°C and 55% relative humidity, the clamping time may be reduced to little more than 1 hour. 

What is the open time of Interior Wood Glue?

EVO-STIK Wood Glue Interior has an open assembly time of approximately 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the porosity of the substrate and the ambient temperature.

How do I clean the nozzle of my wood glue?

To clean the nozzle on EVO-STIK wood adhesive, use a clean, damp cloth to firstly wipe off excess glue after closing. 

If the nozzle becomes clogged with dry glue, remove the entire cap by screwing this from the bottle. Twist the nozzle and push the dry glue backward with a toothpick or similar item. Then, rinse the cap with warm water and dry, before screwing back onto the bottle. 

Can Interior Wood Glue be used outside?

No. EVO-STIK Wood Glue Interior is designed for indoor use only and is not recommended for outdoor applications.

For exterior projects, we recommend EVO-STIK Wood Glue Exterior, which can be used for both interior and exterior wood bonding.
