Like PL400 but transparent

[hasnas]

Hello,

I'm working on a project where I planned to use pl400 but realized that the job would be much easier if I used a transparent substitute (the white color will be visible). Does anyone have suggestions for gluing hardwood outdoors?

Before it cures yes, when it cures it becomes a yellowish foam.

Today's PL 400 is not what it used to be. Perhaps transparent silicone could be something? There are models available today that don't yellow over time.

Depends as mentioned on what needs to be glued and what strength is required.

Depends, as mentioned, on what needs to be glued and what strength you need.

Good point, it's hardwood against hardwood and as strong as possible.

Check out Biltema's Multibond, an MS polymer.

Looking at the safety data sheet, I would 1000 times rather use Tec7 ms polymer than Biltema's equivalent.

As strong as possible! Then you can forget everything that is transparent.

Please tell me more. I have used both of these products successfully, what is it that makes Biltema's Multibond 1000 times worse to use safety-wise?

Then I would have used epoxy glue.
Unmatched strength and withstands most things.

Please tell me more. I have used both of these products with great success, what would make Biltema's Multibond 1000 times worse to use in terms of safety?

The whole concept of a non-toxic everyday life. But I don't have the energy to elaborate on it because I already feel that we don't have the same perspective.

The whole concept of a toxin-free everyday life. But I don't have the energy to make a statement about it because I already sense that we don't share the same view.

I am as interested as most in avoiding unnecessary exposure to toxins, I don't know where you got the impression that this is irrelevant to me.

That's why I am asking, since you apparently know something about these products that I don't know. That they both provide insanely strong and adequately flexible bonds is well established, Biltema's BT Multibond is significantly cheaper, about half the price of Tec7.

Ok, I apologize for that. Tec7 is non-toxic and food-approved, and that's just an example of the kind of personal choices I tend to make when there are otherwise similar options, even if it is more expensive.
