Hello, does anyone with experience with Cascamite Powdered Resin Wood Glue, in particular for use with veneering?
Reading up on it, it is a urea-formaldehyde powdered resin glue powder that is mixed with water to the consistency you want. It has no gap filling properties, and is applied as a very thin film, sets rock hard and is water proof. Looks to be much cheaper than epoxy, I think. Takes 12 hours to set, so has a long opening time, and any excess can be wiped off with a damp rag. Sounds ideal for veneering, but one website says it has a reputation for brittleness.
I think because of the formaldehyde it might require special handling when being applied. Have attached a safety data sheet. Also, have a look at this link on its health impact. Bear in mind even epoxy has toxic stuff in it.
Would welcome any and all comments on this product and its suitability for veneering. Can anyone suggest a similiar safer alternative?
