I had great luck using old brown glue using a suction cup to push it deep I
Into cracks it's thin as water but I like knowing it's deep

I would love listening to you do a full length video of stuff like this. Just bought a second hand guitar and didn't notice all the damage, now it's going to bit a project, but it's my first time so i'm doing my research first

I need to google this glue, hopefully is in Australia 💪🏽

What do you use for wider cracks? Titebond?

[cugir]

Can I use it over super glue? I did a crack a few weeks ago....haven't taken down the proud glue yet....that looks it color over the super glue?

How do you clean up the glue once it's dried and not mess up the top?

[dalonergan]

Two questions Beau. First, are you saying you use glue boost on the old brown? And after the Brown Glue sets, how do you clean it up without once again removing that top layer of glue

[WhoooooooCares]

Does this affect the sound. The cracks I mean

[igorz]

Does this work on the fretboard?? My note sounds dead and has a buzz, I realized there is a small crack on that fret... Would this fix it or make it worse?

[yangmagic]

How did you remove the excess brown glue?
