Glue, to Resist the Action of "Water.
A glue which will resist the action of water is made by boiling best glue, 1 lb. in skim milk, 2 qts. "
5. Glue, Very Strong for Veneering and Inlaying. — " Take the best light brown glue, free from clouds and streaks; dissolve in water to the consistence of well-made glue, and to each pt add half gill (2 ozs. ) of the best vinegar, and 11/2 ozs. of isinglass. ''
6. Glues, Liquid. —"H., " of Mt. Clemens, Mich., in writing to one of the papers, says: " Liquid glue can be made by adding to the ordinary solution of glue, for each lb. of glue used, 1 fl. oz. of strong nitric acid. "
6. " Or, take 1 part (oz. ) of dry glue, powdered, and 3 parts (ozs. ) of commercial acetic acid, which will dissolve the glue without heat. "
Remarks—See " Dr. Chase's Magic Mender, " among the cements, which is made with isinglass dissolved in acetic acid, and is very strong. Glass or porcelain dishes only, can be used with any acid, without dissolving the glues.
