Anybody use Titebond Melamine glue instead of Roo Glue? Half the cost - Alaric - 07-18-2015
Titebond Melamine glue is half the price of Roo Glue. Is anybody using it that can give a good comparison?

Your Amazon link says Titebond is $12.98 delivered, and Roo Glue is $13.58 delivered...
I'd worry about your math skills before I'd worry about a comparison if I were you...

Sold by Woodcraft. Store is a 15 minute round trip if I make a special trip, or it is one mile out of my way on my daily commute. I'd like to hear about how well it performs compared to Roo glue.

As a former glue rep my opinion is 6ix of one and half a dozen of the other and neither work on all melamine. In fact IIRC there is one brand of melamine that neither melamine glue mentioned perform reliably. Bottom line I avoid the thought of gluing melamine whenever possible, with poly vinyl acrylic glues

I would be interested in this as well. RooGlue has uses beyond melamine, such as bonding dissimilar materials and long open times.

I used the Titebond Melamine glue to repair some loose melamine on some cabinets...worked fine, no problems.
