PUR adhesivesQuestion
Also, there is a specific formulation (TE-100) that is thin viscosity and forms a thin glue line. Is the glue line thinner than, similar to, or thicker than yellow glue? Forum Responses
Regarding the glue line, I'd have to say that there are no formulas currently available that can give you a glue line as thin as PVA (yellow glue). I usually tell people that these kind of adhesives are excellent in a wide range of applications but if you're looking for a quicker way to produce panels, it's not the right glue.

From the original questioner: I am not considering edge gluing boards. I do want to glue beveled mitered plywood. I need a perfect seam. I was going to use the vgroover system of tape and glue. If you’re using a closed cell hardwood plywood, like birch or maple, you may find a wicking cyanoacrylate will give you a perfect, fast and easy joint. Wicking is different in that you must add it after the joint is clamped. It sets in minutes. It may effect staining. From the original questioner: The “it may effect staining” part is a show stopper. Any adhesive you choose will affect staining. There are some PUR hot melt formulations that are thin enough to produce an excellent glue line in a mitered joint. The trick is to apply considerable pressure quickly. There are a number of PUR hot melts available. Most companies are interested in selling bulk but 3M, Seaco, and Jowat are involved in selling the smaller 10 oz cartridges. Seaco has the greatest number of formulations.
