Actually, there are different glues specific for different materials, such as glues for wood and plastic. • Familiarize yourself with the different kinds of glues and adhesives available.

As for wood adhesives, they are classified as contact cement, clear cement, hide glue, plastic resin and epoxy. • Once you are familiar with the different kinds of glue, be sure to read the specifications of the function of the glue. If you need waterproof glue for filling of gaps in the wood, an epoxy would be perfect, because it is waterproof. As for furniture repair, the type of glue that you will need is hide glue. There are also specific types of glue for repairing ceramics and eyeglasses. This glue is called cyanoacrylate, which is actually thinner than other glues. • Shop around before you purchase your glue. Before you buy the glue, make sure that it best fits your needs, to make the most out of it. Do not get confused with the different kinds of glue that you see, because there is a glue out there for your purpose.
