I'm getting ready to start building some outdoor storage boxes with dominoes and I'm wondering which type of glue to use.
I presume Titebond 3 would be a safe bet, but its a bit hard to find around these parts and most water resistant glues here reference some specification of D3, not for under water applications - would that be somewhat equivalent to the ANSI Type I or II water resistance standards that are referenced at TB's web site for TB2 & 3?
Products easily available here are Erikeeper and Casco Adhesives.

Are you looking for a glue to seal the Beech dominoes or are you using Sipo?
My local told me the best glue to use for outdoor - unfortunately I'd need to ask them again ;-( but it certainly wasn't either of the ones you mention.
Pretty certain it was a two part epoxy ... I think.

Two boxes will be under a balcony and the other two on the roofless balcony 365 days a year. So rain, hail, snow, wind, sun all will be there with temps ranging from -25C to +50C (in direct sun).
I'm planning on using sipo dominoes and the wood is brown pressure treated pine.
I'll see what two component polys can be acquired locally (since they are Uk mainland only delivery) or then I'll order a bucket of Cascamite since that seems to transportable in the mail.
Thanks!

Hi Reiska,
I have used Titebond II (in my opinion not much difference between Titebond II or III) Even used it in sauna for plugs, same for my outdoor doors.
Kiilto B2 does the job too but doesn't hold as long imho.

Oh, and not that you can go wrong using Titebond III ! But I don't think its worth the extra bucks. Do you buy yours from Plectra trading? I have bought from there a couple a times. They get it from Dicktum but ask a few extra Euros. I usually buy strait from Dicktum with other really necessary stuff... you know, its a good excuse  Stefan ( the man that runs Plectra Trading, says Dicktum and Plectra are kinda under one roof but Finnish prices are a tad higher. But last time I was there I found out that i.e. their price for the Veritas router plane had a 70€ difference. Dicktum for me then it is... |

The Gorilla Glue as opposed to the Gorilla "Wood Glue" I'm assuming .... I used it the other day to glue plastic corner cover strips to painted ply. Awesome stuff! Haven't tried the Gorilla Epoxy yet. |

I managed to get a bottle of TB3 from the local specialist toolshop mentioned above by Mauri and my box of Sipo tennons arrived today so I'm all set - just waiting for my holiday to begin next week...  |
