Dmoose's Guide to Gorilla Glue Handling

*If you have never experianced Gorilla Glue before, you need to go to your local hardware store and grab some, and start glueing random family members to walls.*

I think it's about time I give Gorilla Glue some tribute, seeing as I use it so much.

So the precautions tell you avoid skin contact. Because otherwise it takes a good week for it to wear off. A week with big dark stains on your hands. People asking questions. Yeah. So i found out, through years of practice, what you can do to help prevent that from happening (by help I mean, doesn't always work. Other options are sandpaper, or just waiting it out).

1)rub large amounts of soap into your hands. Rub until dry.
2)Do your glueing of family members while trying to avoid contact with Gorilla Glue
3)Some glue gets on your hands
4)Clean up area
5)take paper towels or tissues and rub places on hands that have glue vigorously
6)Once there is no more stickyness, Rub more soap onto your hands until dry
7)In a couple hours, wash hands. If there is still stickyness after washing is complete, repeat steps 5 & 6.
8)stand and point and laugh at family members.

For the record, I do remember my brother telling me about some hippie who had a guitar that looked like it had been completely shattered, and then Gorilla Glued back up again. Apparently, that's what had happened. It sounded just fine too.

Also, for all you ignorant people, Gorilla Glue is really tough stuff. Like, you probably could glue someone their back flat, four feet up the wall. Seriously.

On a technical note, I've been using this website more and more often for research about various insundury. Pretty nice.
