Annual reminder: It is now almost winter, and you should try to remember to remove your glues from your car overnight during the cold season. Constant freeze-thaw cycles can reduce the bonding properties and effectiveness of most adhesives (especially carpenter's wood glues such as Tite-Bond, PVC-E, etc.). And there is also the added inconvenience of trying to make a repair with a glue that is frozen solid or so thick that it will not flow. If you read Pianotek's recent online newsletter, they indicated that they will not sell or ship any glues during the winter for this very reason.
