Two questions about Gorilla Glue:
(1) Has there been a spike in Gorilla Glue sales with all the recent publicity?
(2) Do you think Gorilla Glue would work to repair my leather watchband? There is not a lot of surface area to work with but the repaired area would not be under a lot of stress although there might be a little.
Gorilla Glue is a polyurethane wood glue and not suitable for leather. At least, I have not tried it. I’m sure it is sticky but why not try actual leather contact cement? Eg Barge
I tried a different polyurethane glue and it didn’t work at all. I don’t know anything about leather contact cement. (Yes, I know that Google is magic.) Can you recommend one. ETA Now I see that you must have meant “Barge” to be brand name.
Try Master cement or Barge cement. Last time I needed to glue leather, I actually used no-name rubber cement because that’s what I had, but those are known brands.
Since OP seems to mainly asking for advice on repairs, let’s move this from GQ to IMHO,
It was really the first question I was wondering about but IMHO is fine with me.
So far, all of the replies have been to the second, which is why I moved it.
It should be noted that there’s no single thing called “Gorilla Glue”. Gorilla originally made one type of glue, a polyurethane formula that is now sold as “Original Gorilla Glue”. But the Gorilla brand now makes dozens of types of glue, including white wood glue, cyanoacrylate (super glue), epoxy, construction adhesive, silicone sealant, the now infamous spray glue, etc., all of which are labeled as “Gorilla”.
